A year ago, I was a frustrated author with a lot of stories started, but
never finished.
Then I found Fictionmania, both the site and the community.
The encouragement that I got helped me write and post the thirty stories
that I've done in that year.
Thank you Mindy and everybody else for your encouragement. This story was
started almost ten years ago. I'm glad to have finished it, but I wish the
circumstances were better.
Mindy, you did good. Real good. And you'll be missed.
Ellie
Girl for a Spell
By Ellie Dauber
I really don't remember my folks. They died when I was about five. Car
accident. Mostly, I remember my Aunt Liz, Momma's aunt. I lived with her
from when they died, until she got too sick to care for me. I was a junior
in high school by then, and -- to tell the truth -- I'd gotten kind of wild.
Too wild for most of the family. When Aunt Liz started getting sick,
there was a lot of looking around to see who'd want to take me. Nobody did.
For a while, it looked like I was headed for a foster home. Then,
finally, out of desperation, they called in "Aunt" Therese. Therese was
some sort of cousin of my Mom's, a real recluse and the family eccentric.
She seldom had anything to do with the rest of us, but, as she said, "Blood
tells."
Aunt Liz went to a nursing home down in Florida a few days later, and Aunt
Therese showed up the day after that. I was watching TV when the bell rang.
There she was, one of those women who could be any age from thirty to
ninety: tall as me (almost six foot) and slender, no make-up, and gray-black
hair piled up into a tight bun. Her dress was about the same color as her
hair.
She looked me up and down. "You would be Alan. Fetch my things in from my
car, please." Without another word she walked past me into the house. I
shrugged my shoulders and went out to get her bags. From what I'd heard
about her, I'd expected some weird luggage, but this! Besides three heavy
suitcases, she'd brought a couple of African masks, a stuffed crow, some
really old books bound with a leather strap, jars and jars of spices -- all
labeled in Latin, even a pair of candlesticks made from animal skulls.
"It's like she's some kind of witch," I thought.
Aunt Therese turned and looked at me for a minute. "Why, yes, I am," she
said. "Very perceptive of you, Alan. There may be hope for you, after
all."
- # -
It was like that for about a week. Aunt Therese took over the house like
she'd been there forever. Her luggage went into the main bedroom; the
books, boxes, and odds and ends into Aunt Liz's old sewing room. A lot more
boxes came in the next few days. Aunt Therese put a lock on the sewing room
door after she caught me snooping. She spent hours in that room doing who
knew what. Sometimes, late at night, I'd think I heard drums and -- once --
two or more weird voices talking. I tried not to let all this bother me.
It was only a few weeks till summer vacation. I had a bunch of friends, all
as wild as me, and we found lots of ways to keep ourselves amused. Jerry
had an old clunker of a car, and Phil, the oldest looking one of our group,
had managed to get an ID that said he was okay to buy beer. We put both to
a lot of good use.
- # -
It was late one Saturday night in early May. We'd been out using that fake
card of Phil's, and I was pretty drunk. I was trying to find my key, so I
could sneak in to bed. Suddenly, the door swung open. I heard Aunt
Therese's voice. "Come in, Alan." I staggered in, looking for her by the
door. She wasn't there. I couldn't figure out how she had managed to open
the door, when she was standing way over by the steps. As she walked over,
the door slammed shut behind me somehow.
"Dead drunk," she said in disgust. I just stood there giving her a dopey
grin. "I've been patient long enough. We shall deal with this in the
morning." She reached down into a pocket and pulled out a ring. "Wear this
tonight. I want you alert and healthy in the morning." She handed me the
ring and walked up to bed. I looked at it for a minute. It was silver with
a purplish gem, an amethyst I found out later. I was too drunk to care, so
I slipped it on and went to bed myself.
Sunday
Whatever that ring was, it worked. I woke up expecting one monster
hangover, but I felt great! I threw a robe on over my T-shirt and shorts
and headed downstairs for some breakfast. Aunt Therese was waiting for me
in the living room. Her hair was undone and hung straight down to the small
of her back. She wore some sort of blue satin gown embroidered with all
sorts of red, gold, and black symbols. All the shades were down, and there
were lit candles everywhere. She just stood there and pointed to a chalk
pattern drawn on the carpet in the shape of a star inside a circle. "Please
stand in the pentagram, Alan, so we may begin."
"What is all this mumbo-jumbo?" I asked.
She slapped my face. "Enough insolence. Move!" I was too startled to
resist. I went over and stood in the center of the design. She took five
red candles off the table, put each one in a little holder at one point of
the star, and lit them. They burned with a greenish flame and gave out thin
trails of black smoke. What a strange smell! Then she began chanting in a
low voice and walking around the star. After a couple of minutes, the smell
of the candles began to get to me. I tried to leave, to go have breakfast,
but something seemed to stop me. It was like there was a wall around the
blasted thing. I pushed against thin air, but couldn't get past.
Aunt Therese nodded. "Ah, you begin to see. Now, feel the power. _Feminis
corporae transmuto_." She walked around the star saying that same weird
chant over and over. Finally, she stopped right in front of me and began
gesturing with her hands. "_Feminis corporae transmuto_." Seven times she
said it. I noticed that her hands were beginning to glow somehow. The glow
got bigger and brighter until it was a ball of golden light around both
hands. She raised her hands and pointed at me. "_Transmuto_!" she yelled.
The ball of light shot off her hands and flew across the room towards me. I
panicked, but I still couldn't move out of the way. It shot over the edge
of the star and sank into my belly. I felt the energy sitting there warm in
my stomach for a minute. Then it seemed to spread out through my body,
tingling like an electric shock. My scalp began to itch. My chest felt
tight against my robe. I had a weird feeling in my groin, a tingling like
my penis was going numb somehow, and inside me it felt like things were
being moved around. I shook my head. It felt like somebody was pulling on
my hair, too, making it seem like it was a lot heavier or longer. I was
dizzy, and the room was spinning. I raised one hand up towards my face. I
just had time to notice that my hand seemed to be shrinking. Then I felt
myself falling into blackness.
- # -
I awoke in my bed. Aunt Therese was sitting on the edge putting a cold
cloth on my forehead. "Ah, awake at last, I see." She smiled for a moment
as if to reassure me. "You needn't be concerned. The first time is always
the hardest."
"The first time? The first time at what?" My voice sounded different. I
was scared. "Get out of here," I shouted. My voice seemed much too high.
"A young lady mustn't talk like that," Aunt Therese scolded. Young lady!?
I looked down at myself. I had breasts! I could see two nipples pushing
out points against the front of my T-shirt. I jumped out of bed and ran to
my mirror. I tossed off the robe and pulled my shorts down past my knees.
All the old familiar male equipment was gone. Instead, I saw a vertical
slit covered with brownish curls. My hair was long, hanging down past to my
shoulders. My face looked pretty much the same, except my nose was smaller,
and my cheekbones seemed a little higher. The real shocker was my figure.
Big tits sticking out on my chest, pushing against the robe; a fairly narrow
waist; wide hips. I was too shocked to fully judge my new looks, but I was
definitely a girl.
Aunt Therese smiled again at the look of horror on my face. "Yes, Alice --
that's your name now, incidentally -- Alice, you were far too unruly as a
boy. So I've used my magic to transform you into a girl."
"I'll tell."
"Certainly, go ahead. If they don't believe you, they'll think you're mad.
If they do, well, what of it. I'm the only one who can change you back. If
I want to change you back. Now, stop dawdling and get dressed. We've a
great deal of shopping to do."
"Shopping? For what?"
"You'll see," she said and tossed a pile of clothes onto the bed. "Wear
these." She turned and left the room. "Be down in ten minutes, or it gets
worse."
The clothes were mostly old stuff of mine from down in the basement, only
the Star Wars shirt was new. I'd noticed as I picked the stuff of the bed
that I was several inches shorter than before. I didn't think I was going
to be able to fit into most of my regular clothes, so I was glad that Aunt
Liz had never seemed to throw anything out. Even so, it felt strange
getting into clothes that I'd outgrown a couple years before.
I took off the T-shirt that I'd slept in and put on the Star Wars shirt.
Even though I was smaller, the shirt was tight across the, umm, chest, and
the material felt scratchy rubbing against my nipples. I put on a new pair
of undershorts, too. The ones from the basement wouldn't fit. I was just
too "girly". The pants were the right length. They were very loose at the
waist, though, and much too tight across the hips. I barely managed to get
the fly up, which reminded me again that I had nothing in front to block the
zipper.
Aunt Therese hadn't included any shoes, so I just put on a pair of sneakers.
They were much too big. I took them off and put on three pairs of gym
socks. Then I tried the sneakers on again, pulling the laces extra tight.
It looked pretty shabby, but they fit. I was trying to figure out what to
do next when Aunt Therese came back into the room. "Stop dawdling, Alice.
Our first appointment is in fifteen minutes."
"Appointment? Where? And for what?" I was puzzled and more than a little
scared. Was I supposed to go out and meet people looking like this?
Apparently, yes, I was. Fifteen minutes later, we were walking into Oak
Hill Mall.
Oak Hill Mall! Half the kids I knew in town hung out there. By now, it was
early Sunday afternoon. Most of the stores would be opened, and I was
terrified of being recognized. But nobody did. Not even Jerry, who I'd
been out drinking with only the night before. I mean, even with the
hangover that he obviously had, he should've recognized me. He was coming
out of the "Dairy Barn" just as we walked in, and I almost walked right into
him. He just muttered something like "Dumb bimbo" at me and walked away. I
didn't know whether to be happy or mad that he didn't recognize me.
Aunt Therese grabbed my arm and lead me to the "House of Style", one of the
beauty shops in the mall. As we walked in, she touched my throat. I felt a
funny tingle. When I tried to ask what she'd done to me now, I discovered
that I couldn't speak above a whisper. A tall blonde in a yellow smock
walked over. "May I help you," she asked.
"This is my niece, Alice," Aunt Therese said. "She showed up for a visit
looking like a vagrant. See if you can't get her looking like a lady." I
tried to say something, but all that came out was a tiny squeak. The woman,
who called herself Jennie, led me over to a sort of barber chair and handed
me a smock the same color as hers. I figured I was stuck, for the while at
least, so I put on the smock over my clothes and sat down.
Jennie and Aunt Therese talked for a few minutes. Aunt Therese gave me
something to drink that almost tasted like tea. Then Jennie came over and
began work. She put on some sort of mask over my eyes and began to rub
something oily into my hair. It was warm in the shop, and Jennie's scalp
massage felt really great. In spite of everything I'd been through (or
maybe because of whatever it was that Aunt Therese had given me to drink), I
fell asleep.
The next thing I knew, somebody was rubbing something onto my face. I
opened my eyes and saw Jennie. She smiled. "Your Aunt Therese had me to do
your make-up as well your hair. I wanted to wake you up to ask how you
wanted it, but she said you had no real taste in such matters. I did it the
way I see a lot of the kids your age. I hope you like it."
With that she spun the chair around towards the mirror. It -- it was
unreal. I could hardly believe it was me. My hair was combed out straight
and curled up around my neck with a couple of tiny plastic bows, one on each
side. My eyebrows were thinned into narrow lines. (How had I slept through
that?) I had blue shadow over my eyes, and light red lipstick on my lips.
When I put up my hands to my face in surprise, I saw that my nails had been
shaped and were colored to match the lipstick. I looked --
"Excellent," Aunt Therese said from behind me. "Every inch the young lady.
Now, come, child, and let us do something about those horrid clothes." While
she paid Jennie, I got out of the chair and took off the smock. I found
myself wanting to look in the mirror again. Part of me hated what was going
on and shuddered at the thought of looking in that mirror. Another part of
me was enjoying the way I looked. That part seemed to be getting stronger,
but before I could decide if I really wanted to take that second, better
look, Aunt Therese hustled me out of the shop.
A few minutes later, we arrived at a shop called "Le Moderne" in one of the
fancier parts of the mall. The shop seemed closed with shades drawn on all
the windows, but the sign on the door said "By Appointment Only". Aunt
Therese knocked.
A very pretty woman in a long, dark blue dress opened the door and smiled,
"Ah, Therese, I haven't seen you since last Lammas Day's coven. And this is
the transmute you told me about. Do come in." We went in, and the woman
locked the door behind us. It was a woman's clothing store!
"Yes, Mariah," Aunt Therese was saying. "One newly-made maiden in need of
your skill and your wonderful wares to truly fit her new role in life."
"I understand," Mariah said and turned to me. "Take off those stupid male
clothes right now, girl. I want to get a look at what I have to work with."
I wasn't sure what to do. I certainly wasn't used to stripping down in
front of women. But I was a girl now, myself. I hesitated for a minute
then pulled my T-shirt off over my head. (Being careful, of course, of my
new hair-do.) I kicked off my shoes and dropped my pants. I suddenly felt
embarrassed standing there in just my shorts. I put a hand over my crotch
like any guy would do, but for some reason, I put up my other arm to cover
my tits. Aunt Therese and Mariah looked at one another and smiled.
"Very good, Therese," Mariah said. "Feminine instincts already. She'll be
an easy one."
"I do expect so," Aunt Therese said. "It's just us girls, though, Alice.
So take off those boxer shorts. You look ridiculous in them."
My shorts joined my other clothes in the pile near my feet. I was puzzled.
What did she mean "feminine instincts"? I thought it might be important,
but my mind just didn't seem to want to focus. "Now, come over here,"
Mariah said, "and let's get started." Here was a table of lacy women's
underwear. She handed me a pair of panties, blue I think they were, with
little yellow butterflies on one side. "I think that these should do
nicely. Ah, yes, and here's the bra that goes with them." She handed me a
matching bra with the butterfly pattern on one cup.
I stepped into the panties and pulled them up. They felt light and cool on
me, much different than the cotton shorts I was used to wearing. I wasn't
sure how to put on the bra. I thought for a moment, then I put it around my
waist and fastened it. I was starting to twist it up and around to my
breasts when Mariah stopped me.
"No, you little twit. Take that off, right now!" I stopped and unsnapped
the bra. "Now, put your arms through the straps and lean into it -- yes,
that's right. Now reach around behind you -- good girl -- and grab the
ends. Good! Now, feel around for the hook and eye -- Yes! Now, just hook
it up."
I did it just as she ordered. I'd never worn a bra, of course, but now the
movements came easy. Somehow, I felt better with the bra on. My breasts
weren't that big (even if they did seem enormous to me just then), but the
support of the bra made them feel more comfortable. Pantyhose came next. I
found that I knew how to put them on: one leg at time, being careful not to
get them twisted or to snag them on my pretty new nails.
Mariah handed me a pale blue dress. "Try this. It goes with your eyes."
I'd never thought much before about dressing to match my eyes. But now, it
seemed more important. I wriggled into the dress and buttoned it up the
side. It felt a little tight at the waist and seemed to push up my breasts,
making them look more noticeable.
"I think these should be your size," said Mariah, handing me a pair of light
blue shoes. With a two inch heel! I put them on and took an experimental
step. I was a little wobbly, but I found that there was no problem if I
took shorter steps than I was used to and shifted my weight as I walked.
Shifting my weight also shifted my hips. My walk was now totally feminine.
Aunt Therese smiled and pointed to a mirror over by the wall. "Go take a
look at your new self, Alice."
I'll admit, I was more than a little curious. I'd been too scared to take a
real good look when I first changed, and I hadn't been able to tell much in
those old clothes. Aunt Therese had rushed me out of the beauty shop, but
now she let me linger to fully appreciate the effects of her magic.
But now! Holy spit, I was one prime fox! I mean, I knew my head looked
pretty good with the new hair-do and the make-up. But the body was a real
surprise. Big, melon-y breasts, the nipples half visible through the shear
bra and the flimsy dress; my waist, now almost narrow enough to put your
hands around; and full, luscious hips. My legs looked pretty good, too,
long and well-curved in those high heels. I loved the way I looked, and I
kept turning and staring at myself in that mirror.
Aunt Therese walked over. "Very pretty, isn't she, Alan?"
It was like a blast of cold water, but I found that I could talk again.
"Why are you doing this to me?"
"I already told you that, as punishment for your horrid, male behavior. You
know who you really are, but you'll find yourself acting like the girl this
body says you are. And, by the way, you've been under this spell long
enough now that you can't tell any one what I've done. If you try, you'll
just begin to giggle, and should you persist, you'll find yourself prattling
about all sorts of feminine inanities."
Mariah walked over, her arms full of clothes. "There's still a lot more for
you to try on, dear."
Now that it was decided that I was properly dressed, we spent the better
part of two hours looking at other clothes. Aunt Therese picked out several
more panty and bra combinations; several more dresses; a short pink
nightgown and a frilly, dark blue one; and a number of blouses and skirts.
Mariah had a lot of women's slacks on display, but Aunt Therese ignored
them. When I asked about getting a pair or two, she just said that a lady
never wore slacks.
A lady! Hell, until that morning, I'd been a boy. But Aunt Therese was
acting like that was a thing of the past. The scary part was that I found
myself enjoying it. I was soon "oohing" and "ahhing" over this or that
outfit like I'd always been a girl.
For example, I had hated changing out of one particular skirt, a lacy green
job that was the latest fashion among several of the girls I'd dated
recently. Aunt Therese said that it was too short and too tight. "A lady
suggests her gender," she said. "She doesn't shout it." That got to me.
Here I was, a boy turned into a girl by his aunt-the-witch, and she was
talking like I was some kind of tramp and she was being forced to protect my
virtue.
By now it was mid-afternoon. Even Aunt Therese admitted that she was
getting hungry. I put that first blue dress back on while she paid. Then
we headed out to the Food Court. I got a burger, coke, and fries and headed
back to the table. Aunt Therese was waiting for something at the Chinese
stall, and I figured that I'd better not start till she got there. I was
staring off into space trying to figure out everything that had happened,
when I realized that somebody was talking to me.
"Excuse me, but don't I know you from school or someplace?" Omigosh! It was
Rick Medford. He'd known me (the male me) since third grade. If he could
recognize me now, I'd never live it down. I looked at his face for a few
seconds then looked away.
"No," I said. "I don't think so. He pulled out one of the chairs at the
table and sat down. "I'm sure I remember you, but I'll be darned if I can
remember where I know you from. My name's Rick Medford. I'm a senior at
Jackson High. Maybe we met at a dance or something."
He gave me his best smile. "It bugs me. You're too pretty for me to forget
where we've met." I wasn't sure how to take the compliment. Rick had a
solid reputation as a lady killer, and I was getting a prime sample of his
technique. It was getting to me, too. I felt my nipples tingling, and
there was a sort of a warmth down in my crotch. It felt good, and I smiled
back at his dumb line in spite of myself.
"My name's Alice, but you really don't know me. I'm here --"
"Having luncheon with her Aunt, whose chair you have taken, young man." Aunt
Therese had come over. She positively _loomed_ over Rick.
"Uhhh, no, ma'am. Sorry, ma'am. Have a nice lunch, ma'am." Rick stood up
quickly and began a hasty retreat towards CD City. "Nice to meet you,
Alice."
Aunt Therese sat down. "Well, that was fun. I'm so glad you're making
friends, Alice. Perhaps you'll see that nice boy in school tomorrow."
School! I hadn't thought about that. I couldn't go to school; not as
Alice. "Oh, relax, child," Aunt Therese said. "Things are taken care off.
Think of something else. Think -- why, think of how nice it felt to have
that boy flirting with you. Made you feel warm and tingly all over, didn't
it?"
I looked down at my burger. "Yes" was all I could say. More than the dress
or the hairdo, the way that my body had reacted to Rick's flirting told me
that I really was a girl. And worst of all, that some part of me liked
being a girl. I was trapped in this -- this nightmare for as long as Aunt
Therese wanted.
I didn't eat much of that lunch. When Aunt Therese finished hers, we headed
back to the house. As we pulled up in the driveway, Aunt Therese told me to
take all my new clothes upstairs and put them away. There were about six
boxes and bags, but I got them out of the car and up to my room without too
much trouble in two trips. (I did notice, though, that I was a lot weaker
as a girl than I had been as a boy.)
The trouble started when I pushed open the door to my room with the first
load. Or what had been my room. It was changed, half my old room and half
- well, half was a girl's room. Two of the walls were now painted pink
instead of light blue, with posters of kittens and male rock stars on the
walls where my motor rally posters and Playboy pin-ups had been. The bed
and the dresser were in the same place as always, but the top of the dresser
was covered with some frilly pink padding. My bedspread was also pink, and
the bed had some sort of cloth canopy over it. I'd had a worktable in the
corner yesterday, my tool chest and parts from an old PC spread out across
the top. Now, there was a low table and chair with a lighted mirror on the
wall next to it and containers of make-up and a box of tissues on a tray on
the top of it. Next to the tray was a copy of _Seventeen_ along with the
issue of _Electronics Experimenter_ magazine that had been there the day
before.
"Like it?" Aunt Therese had come up behind me. "A little something that my
magic fixed up for you, while we were at the mall."
"Where's all my stuff?"
"Why, _your_ stuff is right there, Alice. So are some of Alan's things.
The rest of his stuff is in the basement. Some of his clothes are still in
the closet or in the bottom drawer of his dresser, but there's lots of room
for your pretty, new girl's clothes. Put them all away carefully. After
all, you'll be wearing them for a long, long time."
I set the boxes down on the bed and opened the closet door to hang up the
two garment bags. Most of my (Alan's?) clothes were gone. Just a few of my
old T-shirts and three pair of jeans hanging in a corner of the closet
showed that a boy had ever lived in this room. Several of the now-empty
hangers were padded with some kind of pink foam. I hung up the two bags
with the skirts in them and got a couple of fancy blouses from one of the
boxes on the bed. After I'd hung them up, Aunt Therese showed me how to pin
the new skirts on some of the unpadded hangers.
Most of my dresser was empty, too, except for a few of pairs of undershorts,
some mis-matched socks, and some undershirts in the bottom drawer. My new
bras, panties, and pantyhose went in the top drawers where my underwear and
socks had been. Blouses and a couple of sweaters went into the lower
drawers. The long nightgown was draped over the foot of the bed.
Aunt Therese started to leave. "And get started on your homework now. I'm
sure you haven't finished it." She was right. I hadn't. I hadn't intended
to, either, but now it looked like I didn't have any more choice about that
than about anything else. I sat down at my desk, which was now painted a
light pink to match the rest of the room, and began doing my algebra.
- # -
A couple of hours later, and I was done. The math had gone easier than
usual, and I remembered a lot more of my Spanish vocabulary words than I
normally did. "Maybe Alice is smarter than Alan," I thought. Then I
decided that I'd rather not find any silver linings in this new, pink cloud.
I put my books away and headed downstairs.
Aunt Therese was in the kitchen. "Ah, Alice. Just in time to help with
supper." Before I could say anything, she'd tied a frilly apron around my
waist and handed me a bowl with some potatoes and carrots. "Be a good girl
and peel these, please."
I peeled them. And I cut them up for the stew we were making. Yeah, we
were making. Normally, I hate to cook. It was a girl's job. Only, now, I
was a girl, and cooking was suddenly fun. I was thinking about that as I
was setting the table. Aunt Therese came in with the food. As she sat
down, she looked at me like she was reading my mind. "Oh, don't worry about
why you suddenly enjoy cooking, Alice. My spell changed you mentally, as
well as physically. Otherwise, I'd just have had a troublesome niece
instead of a troublesome nephew. Instead, you'll find that you're now a
demure young lady, studious and obedient. A little shy perhaps, especially
with boys, but very much the girl you appear to be."
I ate my meal in silence. I helped Aunt Therese clear the table without her
even having to ask me. She put the leftovers away. I put the dirty dishes
in the dishwasher, then headed up to my room to think. I lay on my bed for
well over an hour, just staring up at that dumb, pink canopy and trying to
sort things out. I was a girl now. I liked to cook. I liked wearing
dresses and how I looked in them. I liked -- oh, my gosh! -- I liked Rick
Medford. I couldn't help thinking about what he said, how he'd acted at the
mall food court. I pictured him smiling at me, and I wondered if he really
liked me; if he'd like to date me. I suddenly realized that my nipples were
tingling -- just like with Rick at the mall. No way! This was happening
too much too fast. I ran to the bathroom and splashed some cold water on my
face.
That felt better. On my way back to the bedroom, I heard Aunt Therese call
from downstairs. "Are you all right, dear?" She knew what I'd been
thinking about! Hell, she'd probably put those thoughts in my head somehow.
"Yes, Aunt Therese," I called.
"Well, you've certainly had a long day, Alice. Why don't you go to bed
early tonight. You've got school tomorrow, you know."
"Yes, Aunt Therese." I suddenly felt very sleepy. I went back to my room
and slipped out of my dress, stockings, and bra. Boy or girl, I figured I'd
better wear some kind of underpants. I glanced at the mirror as I hung up
the dress. "Boy," I thought, "what a body I've got now." If I'd been Alan,
alone with an almost naked girl who looked as good as I did now, I'd have
screwed her in a minute. Now I was just proud of my figure, my narrow waist
and my wide hips. And my breasts -- my breasts were as pretty as any I'd
ever seen in a Playboy. Not as big, but I was only sixteen.
Suddenly, I realized what I was thinking. My thoughts weren't of screwing
such a pretty girl, but of being pretty enough that some boy would want me.
And I was smiling at the thought! NO! I shook my head, trying to shake
those thoughts loose. Then I grabbed my long, loose nightie and threw it
on, so I wouldn't have to look at my new body. Maybe I was stuck with this
body, but why did I have to like it so much?
The nightie felt cool against my bare skin. The soft cotton felt cool
against my legs and my breast. I climbed into bed and tried to get
comfortable. It took a minute to get used to sleeping in the new position
required by a girl with breasts, but then I was asleep almost at once.
Monday
It seemed like only a minute later that the alarm was ringing. Morning!
Blah! Monday morning! Double Blah! I reached over to hit the "Snooze"
button. Then I saw my arm, my wonderful, _hairy_, male arm. I sat up in
bed and looked quickly around the room. It was still half Alice's room, but
I figured that Aunt Therese would switch it back later. The girl's clothes
would probably stay around as a reminder of what would happen if I
misbehaved again. I decided not to worry about that for a few minutes and
went into my bathroom to shower and brush my teeth; maybe even to have my
weekly shave.
When I came out, I fished a pair of cotton boxers out of that bottom drawer
and stepped into them. I couldn't help noticing that they didn't feel as
nice going on as the panties Alice wore. I shook my head to try and get rid
of such thoughts. Alice was gone. Gone forever! From now on, my only
concern about girl's panties was going to be trying to get them off of
whoever my date was. I resolved to try to keep that phony-macho attitude
(well, for a while anyway), and slipped into a pair of jeans and a Steelers
t-shirt. As I was finishing getting dressed, I decided that not causing
Aunt Therese any trouble -- for a while, at least -- was also probably a
very good idea.
Breakfast was ready when I came downstairs with my books. Aunt Therese
acted like nothing had happened. Except as I was leaving, she looked me
straight in the eye and said, "You had best know right now that I expect you
to be home by four o'clock."
"Four o'clock." I tried to repeat it in the same weird monotone that she
had. Didn't quite do it, though. Then I shrugged and left for school.
- # -
What can I say about school that day? It was school, the same boring place
that it always was. Mr. Holgar in Civics reminded us that our term papers
were due the Friday of next week. I groaned along with the rest of the
class at the prospect of spending several evenings doing research at the
Library. Algebra and Spanish classes seemed easier than usual, though. A
little leftover gift from Alice, I guessed.
The important news was that Matt, another member of my bunch had managed to
scrounge up somebody's old timing light. He, Phil, and I agreed to head
over after school and try it out on Jerry's clunker. Maybe we really could
get that thing running by Summer.
My house was on the way to Jerry's. I ran in, dropped off my books, and
headed out the door in two minutes, tops. I'd gone about two blocks, most
of the way to Jerry's, cutting through back yards and an alley, when I heard
the chime from the clock at the North Street Bank. "Bong! Bong! Bong!
Bong!"
Suddenly, I felt very dizzy. I leaned back against a tree and closed my
eyes. I was shivering a little and felt very strange. It was a feeling
that I'd never had before. No! It was the feeling that I'd had when Aunt
Therese had cast her spell on me.
Was I turning back into Alice? I put my hands on my chest. Yes, I could
feel my breasts growing under my shirt, the tickle on my neck as my hair got
longer. Things seemed to be moving around down in my gut, and I had this
weird feeling in my crotch. The tree seemed to slide against my back as I
shrank down into Alice's smaller body.
Then the feelings stopped. I opened my eyes and looked around in case
anyone had seen me. Nobody had, thank heavens. Then I looked down -- down
past where my breasts pushed out Alan's shirt, the nipples visible through
the flimsy material of my T-shirt. Aside from that, my clothes had gotten
much too big for me. I reached down to my crotch. Nothing! Nothing that I
wanted to be there, anyway. I pulled my belt tight, tying it in a knot, so
my pants wouldn't fall down. When I tried to walk, I stepped right out of
my shoes. My socks had pretty good elastic, so they stayed up, even if they
were now much too big for Alice's tiny feet. I grabbed the shoes and
started running towards home. Nobody had seen me change, but I sure didn't
want to run into anybody I knew. Or just run into anybody, since whoever I
met would want to know why Alice was going around in Alan's clothes.
I was home in a few minutes. Aunt Therese was waiting for me in the living
room. "I did warn you that I expected you home by four. Maybe Alice can't
go to that school of yours, but that doesn't mean that I have to endure Alan
the rest of the time. Now, upstairs, young lady, and change into something
proper for after school.
"But Matt, Phil, and Jerry are expecting me. We were going to work on
Jerry's car."
"Those hoodlums are expecting their friend, Alan. You are Alice, who -- if
you think about it for a moment -- knows much less about cars than Alan
does."
"What!?!" I closed my eyes and tried to picture Jerry's engine, and how we
were going to check out the timing with that light Matt had gotten. I'd
seen the light at Matt's locker maybe an hour before, after gym, but now I
could hardly remember what it looked like, let alone how to use it. I could
see the three guys and the car itself clearly, but the tools and parts were
just sort of vague shapes that I couldn't understand. I had no idea what
any of them were or how they were used. What's more, I didn't seem to care
that I couldn't remember anything about them.
Aunt Therese smiled. "Don't worry, my dear. The knowledge is still there,
but only for Alan to use. Now, go put on some proper clothing."
There was nothing else to do. I went up and stripped out of Alan's clothes.
I picked a peach colored bra and panty set out of my drawer. I thought
for a minute about going without a bra. A few of the other girls at school
did. (Other girls? What was I thinking?) But then I thought about how you
could see their nipples through their blouses and what I knew the boys said
about them. My face suddenly felt warm. I looked in the mirror and found
that I was blushing in embarrassment at the thought of being considered that
kind of girl. I began to realize again that Aunt Therese's spell had
changed a lot more than just my body.
I stepped into the panties and pulled them up to my waist. These felt
right, not like those scratchy things of Alan's. I was afraid for a second
that I wouldn't remember how to put on the bra, but I slipped into it like
I'd been wearing one for years. I'd have loved to put on slacks or, say, a
comfortable pair of jeans, but Aunt Therese hadn't let me buy any. Those
real old jeans that I'd worn to the mall yesterday were folded over a chair.
I tried wearing them again. They fit -- more or less -- but they just
didn't fit right. They were much too loose in the waist, but barely got
around my hips. They bagged in the seat and, worst of all, they had a bulge
in the front. Who needed something like that? I put on a yellow blouse
with a cute "Peter Pan" collar and a matching yellow-brown skirt. I just
wanted to relax, so I put on a pair of socks, rather than tights or
knee-high stockings, and stepped into a pair of flats. This was much
better; much more the way I wanted to be dressed.
When I looked in the mirror, I found that my hair had grown back into the
style that Jennie had put it in yesterday. I didn't really need any
make-up, just a little lipstick and blush. I found putting the make-up on
as easy as putting on the bra. As if I-as-Alice had been doing it for
years, even if I-as-Alan never had. But Alan was Alice. Wasn't he? She?
I? It was just too confusing. I went back down to Aunt Therese in the
living room.
"That's much better, Alice. There's still some time before I need your help
with dinner. Why not get in some study time?" I shrugged my shoulders in
defeat and reached for my book bag. Boy! Alice was a lot less strong than
Alan was. Those books were heavy! I put my arms through the shoulder straps
and headed back upstairs to do my homework.
- # -
At supper I told Aunt Therese about the Civics paper being due. As Alan, I
had barely begun my research. That hadn't bothered me much before, but it
did now. Since I'd gotten most of my homework done before supper, I asked
Aunt Therese if I could go to the library. "Certainly, my dear," she said
with a strange sort of smile. "Let me get the car keys."
"Keys? It's not much over a half mile. I can walk it in no time."
"No, my dear. Alan might have been safe walking that far alone at dusk, but
it isn't really a good idea for you to do it. Now is it, Alice?" Aunt
Therese had gotten the keys as she spoke. Now she was staring at me, eyes
narrowed almost to slits. I suddenly had an image in my mind. I, as Alice,
was walking along a dark street. Men grabbed me. I tried to struggle, but
I was just a weak girl. They pulled me into some bushes. They tore at my
clothes. I felt my bra ripped off, and hands were squeezing my breasts,
playing with my sensitive nipples. I screamed and opened my eyes.
I was still sitting at the table with Aunt Therese. She had a much too
satisfied look on her face. "Now you know, _Alice_. You may be a boy named
Alan during most of the day, but after four, your instincts and reactions
are Alice's. And she's very much aware -- especially at this moment -- of
just how vulnerable a girl like her can be."
Ten minutes later, we were at the library. "Call me when you're ready to
come home," Aunt Therese said. "It will be well after dark, when the
building closes." She rolled up the car window and drove off without
another word.
I went inside. My paper was going to be on how MTV had gotten older kids
involved in political issues. I'd already done some of the research for my
paper, used a Key Word Search program on the school library computer to get
a list of articles to read. I walked over to the room where back issues
were stored. I was reaching for a volume of old Time magazines up on one of
the higher shelves, when I heard a voice behind me.
"Need some help with that?" I turn around. It was Rick Medford. He smiled
and walked over. He was about the same height as Alan, so I realized again
how much smaller Alice was, when I found myself having to look up to see his
face. He leaned in close to me and reached up for the book. "Where are you
sitting," he asked.
I pointed to a table nearby where I'd left my notebook. He walked over and
put it down on the table. Then he put down his own notebook and picked up
my list of references. "This is a pretty long list. Better let me help."
We walked through the stacks, while he pulled out the different volumes of
old articles on my list. I realized after a couple of minutes that he
wanted to show off for me; to show strong he was by lifting and carrying all
those books. Just the sort of dumb stunt I tried all the time as Alan to
impress girls.
We eventually got back to the table, and he put the books by my place. He
went and got a couple reference books from one of the librarians and sat
down across from me. "This way, I can look at you while I'm working. A
pretty view makes the time go quicker."
I smiled back at him and sat down. "I think so, too." What was I saying?
We didn't say much of anything after that. Well, it was a library, after
all. Besides, we both had work to do. I did look up once or twice and
catch him staring at me and smiling kind of funny. And once he looked up,
and I realized that I was looking at him. He smiled at that. He had a nice
smile. I felt my cheeks get warm all of a sudden, and I buried my head in
my notes in embarrassment.
A while later, I felt him lightly touch my hand. "Care to take a quick
break? I'm buying."
"Okay," I said. "I'm getting a little thirsty anyway." There was a small
lounge in the basement of the library: soda and candy machines and a couple
of couches. We walked down. The room was empty. Rick got put some change
in the soda machine by the door.
"As I recall, you drink Coke," he said. "At least that's what you were
drinking at the mall, yesterday." He pressed the button, and a can rolled
out. "Want anything else?"
"Coke'll be fine," I said. He got a Coke for himself, and we sat down on
one of the couches. He sat close, very close. I felt strange. Nervous,
but happy, somehow, also suddenly warm. I drank some Coke, but it didn't
help. My nipples were tingling, and my stomach was doing flip-flops. I was
smiling for no real reason. I realized that Rick was getting to me. I was
feeling attracted to him like any other girl might be. Any other girl? No,
that was wrong. I was a boy, Alan, under a spell. This feeling was --
Rick reached over and took my hand.
Wonderful! I smiled and looked up into his eyes. I could feel my heart
beating. My nipples felt like they'd turned to stone, and my stomach, or
just below it, felt so nice and hot. "Yes, Rick?"
"I really like you, Alice. Would you like to go to a movie or something
this Saturday?"
"I -- umm -- I don't know." A date! I wanted to so much, but I could hear
myself, as Alan, screaming "NO!" in the back of my mind. "I have to ask my
Aunt. Can you wait till tomorrow night for an answer?"
I could see the disappointment in Rick's face. He'd been hoping I'd say
"Yes" at once. But I was afraid to. It meant giving in to Alice. Then I
thought of how Aunt Therese had made Alice a little timid. Was I hesitating
because Alan didn't want to, or because Alice was too shy to accept? I
stood up to try to shake my thoughts together and make some sense out of
them. "We'd better get back up stairs." I looked at the clock on the wall
behind us. "The library closes in about 45 minutes."
Rick followed me back upstairs with a kind of hound dog look. I felt so sad
that I was almost ready to give in and agree to the date. I didn't, though,
but it was tough.
About five to nine, they announced over the speakers that the library was
closing. We packed up our notes. Rick put his books and mine on the
"reserve" shelf to hold them until the next night. I walked over to the pay
phones to call Aunt Therese. Rick came over. "Can I give you a ride home?"
"Right, Rick," I thought. "So you can see that I live at Alan Webster's
house. That's all I need. Okay, face, stop smiling and say something to
let him down easy."
"Yes, thanks." I'd answered before I could stop myself. Rick smiled
broadly and led me out to his car. (His father's, actually.) He opened the
door for me, then got in himself.
"Where to? Where's your house?"
There was no point in lying now. Besides, a lie would mean walking home
from someplace, and I still remembered that image Aunt Therese put in my
mind. "I'm staying with my Aunt Therese at 837 North Maple."
"Hey, I know that house," Rick said. "Alan Webster lives there. Now I see
why I thought I knew you. You look a lot like him. Only much prettier.
Will you be staying a while, and will you be going to the high school with
him while you're here?"
"Thanks." I thought as quickly as I could. "He's a cousin. I'm staying
there while -- while my parents are working overseas. I may be going to his
school. I don't know how long I'll be here. In the meantime, my old school
sent along a bunch of assignments. That, Mr. Medford, is why I was in the
library. Any other questions?" I was smiling now, a little surprised at
how easily the lies came. Rick just smiled back and started the car.
Like I said, the library's only a few blocks from my house, so we were there
in no time. Rick pulled up by the house and came around to open my door.
As I got out, he leaned over and, well, he kissed me. And I kissed him
back. It was a short kiss, no tongue or anything, but it felt real nice.
Only now, my nipples were aching and harder that ever. The warmth in my
groin seemed to be spreading out through my body. My knees felt weak. I
wanted to kiss him back, but I didn't want to at the same time. I pulled
back for an instant to think.
Rick was smiling again. "I've heard that you shouldn't kiss on the first
date, but this wasn't our first date. It was our "zero-th date, but who's
counting." Just then the porch light went on. Rick ran around and jumped
in the car. "See you tomorrow at the library," he called and drove off.
Aunt Therese was waiting inside, watching through the living room window.
"You seem to have made a conquest, Alice. Who is he?"
"Rick, Rick Medford. That boy who talked to me at the mall. We met at the
library. He brought me home." I wasn't sure if I should tell Aunt Therese
about Rick's asking me for a date. I was still afraid to think about it.
"He did more than that, I noticed." Aunt Therese was smiling. It was a
smile I didn't like. "And you seemed to be enjoying it, and a bit too much,
my girl. Well, go upstairs and get ready for bed."
"Bed? But it's only about 9:30." I was embarrassed about her seeing Rick
kiss me and anxious to change the subject.
"Yes, but your body needs extra energy to make the transformation. Stay up
too late, and Alice might get to go to school tomorrow after all."
That was a threat I didn't want to risk. Besides, I was suddenly feeling a
bit tired. "Okay," I said. "Goodnight."
"Goodnight, Alice. And just think, maybe you'll dream about your new
boyfriend."
_Boyfriend?_ I tried not to think about Rick as I ran up to my bedroom.
But I couldn't. I kept seeing his face. His smile. He had such a nice
smile. As I unbuttoned my blouse, I felt my nipples getting hard again. I
could see them poking out against my bra. I touched one. Oh! The sensation
was so strong that it was almost frightening.
I took off the bra and put on my nightgown. My whole body was tingling. I
turned off the lights and got into bed. I couldn't help but think about
Ricki. There was a warm feeling spreading out from my groin. I suddenly
realized that I'd been stroking my nipples. I was about to touch myself
down _there_! I was suddenly very much afraid of Alice. I lay there in bed
a long time, afraid to think of anything, afraid to move, until I feel
asleep.
Tuesday
However much sleep I got must have been enough. I woke up as Alan.
Jerry was really pissed at me for not showing up the day before to help with
his car. Matt and Phil weren't too happy either. I told them that I'd
gotten stuck helping Aunt Therese with some stuff around the house. They'd
all met her at one time or another, and Phil even had the good sense to be a
little afraid of her, though he didn't know why.
I knew why, but I sure wasn't going to tell. The best I could do was to
warn him, warn them all, to stay clear of Aunt Therese. I made up some lie
about her being a little crazy. Said that I had to humor her, or I'd wind
up living in a foster home someplace or worse. They were sympathetic and
agreed to go along.
(I suppose that I could have told them the truth: that Aunt Therese was a
witch and that, if they weren't careful, my cousin Alice would have some new
girlfriends to compare lipsticks with. Yeah, and they'd have believed me.
NOT!)
Just when I thought everything was handled, Rick Medford comes by. We
didn't have any classes together; he being a senior and me a junior.
Besides, he hung out with a different crowd, so I hadn't seen him (as Alan)
in a good month or more. Now he came looking for me. To ask me about my
cousin, Alice, no less.
I told him the same lies that I had the night before. Only now, he wanted
details. I made some up. My Dad and hers had been first cousins. Her dad
was a businessman who'd been given a temporary assignment traveling through
Europe. She was staying with Aunt Therese and me while he and her mother
were over there. No, I didn't know if she'd be coming to our school. I
didn't think that she would, though. Her old school had given her a lot of
work to do, so Aunt Therese had decided to keep her at home, rather than do
all the paper work needed to register Alice as a temporary student.
Then Rick got to the important questions. Yes, Alice had mentioned him when
she got home. Yes, she seemed to like him. She said something to Aunt
Therese about having a good time at the library. I said that I'd been busy,
and, anyway, it was girl stuff, so I hadn't paid very close attention. No,
I didn't know if Alice had a boy friend at her old school. She'd never
mentioned one.
I realized that I'd better figure out what to say if Rick ever asked Alice
about a boyfriend. I finally decided to say that Alice was between boyfriends,
if Rick ever asked her -- asked me -- oh, whatever! I'd just say
that they'd split up a week or two before she'd left, and I -- she -- didn't
want to talk about it.)
After Rick headed to his next class, Jerry and Matt chimed in. They were
both curious about my cousin, and why hadn't I introduced her to them. They
knew Rick's reputation, so they figured that if he was interested, then
Alice must be a fox. Didn't I think my friends were good enough for her?
Somehow, I found myself thinking that maybe they weren't. I bobbed and
weaved for a while; told them that Alice hadn't wanted to meet anybody.
She'd run into Rick by accident, and the two had hit it off. I don't think
that they bought much of what I said, though. The guys, I decided, were
going to be trouble.
All in all, it was not my best day at school. That afternoon, I gave Jerry
and the others the same lame excuse about having to do something for Aunt
Therese and headed towards my house. It was almost a relief to get home.
Aunt Therese wasn't home. "Gone Shopping", her note said. I would have
relaxed, except that I knew what was coming at 4 PM.
I had a crazy idea about watching the change, so I ran up to my room,
stripped down, and stood naked in front of my mirror. The bank clock struck
"Four." I began to feel dizzy. All my body hair seemed to shrink down into
my body. My muscles seemed to shrink down, too, into smooth, slightly pale
skin. My whole body was shrinking. It looked in the mirror like I was
getting younger, about age 12 or so. Then I noticed that the hair on my
head was growing over my ears. My nose seemed to be getting smaller. I was
so fascinated watching my face becoming pretty that I just stared at it for
a minute.
Then I realized that I was missing the big changes. I looked down. My
breasts were already about the size of plums and growing out, growing bigger
as I watched. I could feel my balls retreating up into my body. My pubic
hair had reshaped itself into an upside-down triangle. I could barely see
my prick. By now, it was maybe an inch long, shrinking up into a new
position inside my vagina and becoming my clit. I panicked and reached down
for it, barely finding it as it shrank. Then I suddenly felt very
embarrassed. "A girl shouldn't be feeling herself up like this," I thought.
I knew then that Alan was gone again, and Alice had arrived in his place.
I walked over to the dresser and picked out a cute bra and panty set, lilac
colored with white lace flowers. I stepped into the panties and pulled them
up around my hips. They were soft and cool, so much more pleasant to wear
than Alan's scratchy cotton shorts. I did have a little trouble getting on
the bra. The hooks were trickier than either of the other bras I'd worn,
but I managed on the second try. I found myself thinking for a minute of
how hard it would be for a boy to unhook it. I was sure, though, that Rick
could manage. I found myself giggling at the thought; my nipples getting
hard. (Oh brother, maybe I was that kind of girl, at least for Rick.)
I went over by the mirror, thinking to distract myself by looking some more
at my new body. Even without make-up, I was gorgeous. Not quite centerfold
standards, but I was getting there. I should have felt lust, staring at
this great looking chick, standing there half naked posing in the mirror.
Alan would have lusted after a girl like this. But I was Alice now, a girl
myself, and all I felt was pride in how narrow my waist was and how my
breasts filled out my bra. I walked around, turning my head to keep
watching my image in the mirror. I saw my hips sway as I walked, my butt
moving invitingly. It was really cute, and I wished I had a pair of jeans
or a tight little dress that I could wear to show it off better. (Yeah,
Alice was definitely back.)
I decided that I'd better finish getting dressed, when I heard Aunt Therese
come in. I put on a light blue sleeveless blouse and a matching skirt. The
skirt was a little on the short side. I'd barely been able to persuade Aunt
Therese to let me buy it. I liked it because -- well, because it showed off
my legs so nicely. "Might as well give Rick a treat," I thought. I put on
a pair of skin tone peds and my new sneakers and went down to help Aunt
Therese with the groceries.
I had just put a bag of groceries on the table when the front door bell
rang. Aunt Therese was out back bringing in another bag. "Doorbell," I
yelled to her. "I'll get it."
Big mistake! Phil and Jerry had come to get Alan. "Well, hello," Phil
said, looking me up and down. "You must be Alice. We heard about you, but
we didn't think anybody could be as pretty as they said you were. Is Alan
home? I want to congratulate him on his taste in cousins." Jerry just
leered. I wished that I hadn't picked out such a short dress. I felt naked
in front of them. I wanted to cover myself with my hands, but I knew that
doing so would just make things worse.
"Alan -- um, Alan's not -- he's not here," I said. I wasn't worried about
them recognizing me as Alan. Heck, Phil was looking at my breasts, not my
face, while he talked to me. I just felt like I was on some kind of bug on
display, and I didn't like it.
"Can you tell us where he is?" Jerry chimed in. "Even better, would you
like to come with us to look for him?" Great! Now my friends were hitting
on me. I knew these guys well enough to know that they weren't about to
rape me or anything. But sex was definitely on their warped little minds,
and I really didn't think that I enjoyed being with them as Alice.
"My niece will not be going with you," Aunt Therese pronounced. She made it
sound like it was written in stone someplace. "As for Alan, he is here, but
unavailable. His behavior has been so bad that he will not be leaving this
house, except to go to school, for some time."
Phil and Jerry both jumped at her voice. "Could we at least see him for a
minute? It's kind of important."
"Since I hold you two miscreants to blame for some of his worst behavior,
you will not be allowed to see him here, either." Aunt Therese was either
very mad, or she was laying it on to good effect. The guys turned and,
without another word, hurried away from the house. Aunt Therese smiled.
"Well, that was fun. Now shall we put away these groceries?"
I felt somehow like I wanted to wash my hands after talking to the guys, but
I figured that I'd better help Aunt Therese. We got in the last of the
groceries and started putting things away. "So, Alice," Aunt Therese asked me
all of a sudden, "what do you think of your cousin's friends?"
"They're, umm, they're okay, I guess."
"Truthfully now, my girl," Aunt Therese said. "You weren't acting as if you
were very comfortable around those two."
"I was afraid that they'd recognize me." It was the truth, or at least part
of the truth. At best, the guys would think I was some kind of
cross-dresser, maybe even gay. At worst, they might guess what had
happened. (Jerry had told me more than once that he thought Aunt Therese
was some kind of witch.) Then what would Aunt Therese do? Turn them into
girls, too. Or maybe something worse, frogs or bugs or something.
Aunt Therese looked me up and down. "That might have been what Alan was
thinking. But I asked what _Alice_ thought." She had me.
"Okay, okay, I'll admit it. I was afraid that they'd recognize me, but only
for a minute. Then, I was just upset that these two guys were staring at me
like a piece of meat or something and that their only real concern was
trying to -- to get me into bed. I didn't like it."
"Ah, poor sweet little Alice. She isn't used to being a girl, yet. Most
teenage boys -- most men, in fact, think mainly below their belts. You did
yourself when you were Alan. I'll wager that even your friend -- what was
his name? -- oh, yes, Rick, is guilty of doing it. You just have to learn
to accept that -- and the sort of crude behavior that results -- as the
price of being such a pretty girl. In fact, watching you learning to accept
it is part of my fun in the casting of this spell on you."
"And just how long is your fun going to last?" I was worried now. The more
Aunt Therese enjoyed watching me squirm, the longer she might keep the spell
going. Being Alice was getting way too comfortable. I wanted to get it
over with and go back to being Alan full time.
"It will last, more or less, as long as I wish it. Your -- Alan's behavior
was intolerable. As Alice, you are far better behaved. When I am sure
that her politeness and good manners will remain with Alan, then and only
then will I end the spell." She looked up at the kitchen clock. "And since
all of the groceries are put away -- and thank you for your help,
incidentally; Alan seldom helped around the house -- you should go back to
your room to study or do homework until supper. We'll be having a cold
chicken pasta salad this evening, so I won't need your help getting it
ready. Just come down about six."
So those were the terms. I went back upstairs to think about things. I
_was_ acting differently as Alice. I had been proud of her body while I was
getting dressed. I not only felt comfortable in her pretty dresses and
skirts, panties and bras, but I liked wearing them. Helping with the
groceries had seemed the natural thing to do. And I didn't like being
around two of my oldest friends. That last one bothered me. What bothered
me more, though, was that I had liked being around Rick.
Then I thought some more about Rick. He bothered me, too, but in a
different way. I found myself smiling at the thought of seeing him at the
Library. I decided that I did want to go out with him over the weekend.
That made me smile more. (And worry more.) I knew that I'd have to ask
Aunt Therese if I could go. But I thought that I'd better wait a bit before
asking, considering what she'd said about Rick before.
I was primping in the mirror, thinking about seeing Rick. Then I realized
that Aunt Therese probably wouldn't let me go to the Library if my homework
wasn't done. I couldn't bear not seeing him, so I buckled down. I was
just finishing my Earth Sciences problems, when I heard the bank clock
strike six. All I had left was some Spanish vocabulary review, and I could
do that before I went to bed. I put my books away and headed down to eat.
I didn't say much during supper. Aunt Therese asked if my homework was
done. I said all but the Spanish vocabulary review, and asked her to drive
me to the Library. She agreed and even suggested that I ask Rick to drive
me home.
Rick was waiting just outside the Library. He waited till Aunt Therese had
driven off, then asked about the date. "Yes, I'd love to go out with you
this weekend" I said, enjoying his big smile when he heard that. "But I
still have to ask my Aunt. Things got a little edgy with us this afternoon,
and I didn't want to bring up any plans for the weekend."
It was a lie, but I couldn't tell him the truth. I wasn't sure what Aunt
Therese would say after her comment about boys thinking with their penises.
I wanted to wait a little bit till she forgot about what idiots Phil and
Jerry had been.
"Okay, I guess," Rick said. "At least you didn't say 'No'. I guess that I
can wait another day." He opened the door and held it for me. "After you,
my lady. We still have our time studying together tonight." I smiled at
him and went through into the building. We went over to where we'd left our
stuff from the night before and began to work.
We both worked fairly steadily. I looked up and caught him looking at me
once or twice, and one time I stopped and just looked at him for a minute
until he caught me. We both laughed at that. Time went so fast that they
were giving us the "Fifteen minutes until the Library closes" notice before
I realized it. "Let's put our stuff away and grab a coke for the ride
home," Rick suggested. I agreed. We put the books back on the restricted
shelves and went downstairs to the lounge. As we walked in, I realized that
Rick was holding my hand. And that I liked it.
Rick bought a couple of sodas and we headed back up. We left the building
just as the five minute notice came over the P-A system. Rick's car was at
the far end of the parking lot. "The lot was much more filled up when I got
here," he said. We walked over to the passenger side. I waited for him to
open the door. He put the two sodas on the car roof and took my hands in
his.
I began to feel a tingling all over. He leaned forwards and kissed me. The
tingling got worse. I could feel my nipples getting hard, and there was a
warmth flowing down from them straight to my groin. Rick let go of my hands
and put his arms around my waist. I raised my own arms up and around his
neck. My mouth opened. I felt his tongue touch mine. I pulled it back,
and his followed. My nipples felt like they were inches long. My panties
suddenly began to feel damp.
Then we heard a giggling and looked around. A couple of girls, maybe
fourteen, had come out of the Library and seen us. I felt my cheeks get
hot. Rick unlocked the door. I grabbed the sodas and got in. I managed to
lean over and unlock his door, while he ran around to his side. He got in
quickly, and we drove out of the lot past the girls who were still giggling.
About halfway back to my house, Rick pulled over and stopped the car. When
he turned the headlights off, I noticed that only a couple of the houses on
the block had lights on inside. We were at the top of a hill with a view of
the whole town out to the highway. The Moon was just coming up over the
ridge. "I'd rather take you out to Taylor Point," Rick said, "but it's a
school night, and you still don't have permission from your Aunt to date me."
He leaned over and kissed me. I wanted to respond. It felt so very good.
Then I suddenly got the image of the two of us naked in a bed. He -- he was
