Living the Dream; part 7 By Malissa Madison "Oh man I hope that wasn't your Sister or something," I said. "Hi I'm Malissa by the way." He laughed, "I finally get to meet you in person, sorry Gary Hollingsworth. But yeah that was my Sister. And I think she's just a wee bit pissed that you showed her up in public." "Gary," Donnie clapped him on the back. "Are you going to be safe going home tonight?" We were walking back into the shop and I laid the blades down on the counter as they started their small talk. After Sophie found her beginners blades I interrupted them. "Love, you need to find a set if you're going to practice with us." He looked a little bit embarrassed. "Hey it's cool Dude, I totally respect you for it," said Gary. "My Mom made me practice with Chelsea for the last three years so she'd be used to having someone she could beat." He blushed a bit. Then whispered, "I think I'm probably better at it than she is. And it's helped my Fencing a hell of a lot." "Can you practice with me in the evenings?" asked Donnie. "You're serious?" Donnie nodded his head yes. "I think Derrick better watch his ass then, because you'll see how much it improves your Fencing style. And you'll make a hell of a lot better team Co-Captain than he is." Gary watched as I helped Donnie pick out a set for himself. Then when we added that pair to the two on the counter, the sales lady smiled. She'd noticed my school ID when I took out my credit card. Leaning across the counter to me she looked around the store first then asked, "Are you going to be competing for Clara's Academy this year? And who is your instructor?" "Yes I certainly am. And our instructor is Miss Karen," I smiled proudly. She took hold of my hands turning them palm up. "These calluses are very old, but the ones beginning are nearly ready to blister. Here let me get you something to help you and your sister." She produced two healthy size bags of rosin, "This is my own blend I added Bee Pollen to it to help promote healing. And you'll need wraps for the conditioning phase." She was practically giddy with excitement. "Oh, Gary. I almost forgot. Your new Toledo Epee just arrived. Perhaps your friend would like to look at our selection as well?" she added drawing back a curtain to reveal the pretty blades on display. Donnie! They have one just like yours," Sophie squealed. "It's so pretty." "Oh which one young lady?" asked the sales lady. "The Salamanca DE fries," replied Donnie. I didn't think I'd ever see another around these parts though." He identified the delicate hand forged Epee with the half cup guard and the red wired twist around the hilt binding the leather and strengthening the grip. "Actually there are two, a matched set for dueling. But then most people around here could barely afford one. And I can't possibly break the set, of course." Sophie's lip was trembling with excitement, her hands shaking. Then Donnie did the unexpected. He flipped his credit card onto the counter and said, "I'll have the set, and add two Rose Wood Cases please." "But you didn't ask how much they cost," she protested. "I'll have to verify the card status before I can complete the sale. I'm sorry." "Don't be, it's perfectly expected, I'd have been surprised if you didn't." he told her politely. "Myron, Honey? Please get the Salamanca's ready for this young man," she called into the back of the store. A short balding man emerged with a silk scarf over his hands to lift them down from the display. "Master Peirce, you've begun collecting have you?" "Not exactly Sir," answered Donnie. "These are for my future wives." He motioned to Sophie and I with a slight bow. "And the Ladies wish to Fence in competition?" he asked. "Yes," we both chimed in at the same time. "But I thought you were competing in Tai Chi?" asked his wife. "We are," beamed Sophie proudly. "Man it's going to be all over the state by Monday," Gary said. "Clara's is making a comeback." They included several of their cards for us to hand out at school to any who wished to learn. I hooked the tips of my new Tai Chi blades together then fastened the tassel balls and slung them over my back watching as Donnie and Sophie did the same. Then we picked up our new Epee's in their Rosewood cases and turned to leave. And there stood Miss Trudy Bright Moon, "Girls, I thought you already had Epee's. what are these?" "A Gift from our future husband," I said. Then opened the lid to show what was inside. Her hand actually covered her mouth, "Oh my, now those are not everyday practice blades. But you will need to use them at least once a week to be comfortable by the competitions." "Their Fencing instructor is Hard Asses Fianc??" Gary whispered. Smiling she said, "Yes and he's meeting me here any minute." Then giggled as he stepped through the door. "Sorry to be late," he kissed her cheek softly. "I was just on the phone informing the Martins academy and Florence's that they have some serious competition coming their way." "Whatever do you mean? John, What do you know?" Laughing he said, "This young lady just kicked Chelsea Hollingsworth's ass all over the concourse. And did it to rock and roll." She high fived me then asked. "Do you four have time for a Root Beer Float before you have to leave?" he raised an eyebrow at her. Faculty weren't supposed to fraternize with students at our Academy and he knew it. "Calm down John, she's actually a distant cousin, you remember Malissa Vandine?" After we had our Floats and talked a bit, he said, "You know neither of our academies has entered into a trio competition before. And given the common ties between us maybe we could pursued the Colonel and Miss Clara." Donnie smiled deeply, "I would be honored, Sir." We quickly added our own willingness. "Gary," said the Major. "Given Chelsea's mood I think maybe you should report in early. I'd be happy to give you a lift." "I'll run him to the house to get his bags Sir," volunteered Donnie. "Don't get caught up in any of that witches bullshit Malissa," warned Miss Trudy. We got lucky and no one was home, so Gary ran in and grabbed his trunk. It barely fit in my car but we made it. he'd left a note saying they had asked him to come in early to help with the new student assignments. Then he said, "If you really want to throw her off just call my sister Diane, she hates her middle name." "So you purposely antagonized her? Why?" asked Sophie. "Because she's an insufferable bitch, and I really wanted an excuse to get away from home early." "Do you really want to hang out at school until Sunday?" asked Sophie. He eyed her suspiciously, "Why, what did you have in mind?" "You could help Donnie teach us basic Fencing, and then help Malissa teach us Tai Chi." She suggested. "That would be fun, but what about your parents? Wouldn't they freak out?" "Our parents are totally cool," I told him. We dropped his trunk At MMA, then drove home, where I opened up the garage and pulled inside. he slung his blades over his shoulder but carried his new Epee in its case as we lead the way into the house. "Momma, this is Gary Hollingsworth. He's at MMA with Donnie and he's going to be helping us until school starts." "Well it's certainly nice to meet you," she said. "David, your daughters have brought home a guest for the rest of the week." They talked a bit then Daddy asked if he could see our Epee's. "Salamanca DE fries' a matched pair? These are very much like yours aren't they Donnie?" "Yes Sir identical in weight and styling." Donnie was proud to see Daddy knew what he used himself. But also curious as how he knew. "Your father invited me to one of the school matches last year. You have good form, maybe we can find time to spar some evening." Daddy motioned to the old family crest over the fireplace Mantle. "Of course I'm bound to be rusty, I haven't fenced in years. Dotty, you might like it too." he suggested. "Do you want to try it Daddy," asked Sophie offering her blade up to him. He blanched, "Heavens no Angel, it's bad luck to handle another person's blade." After that we lead Gary up to our room, "Ok, so what do we want to start on first?" he asked. "How about Fencing?" I suggested. "We'll want to be at our best for Tai Chi." We got out our Epee's that we'd gotten the day before. They would be our everyday practice ones. He smiled at this, "Always' Wow your audience with elegance," he chuckled. It really didn't take that long for Sophie and I to learn the basics. Most were similar in both our favorite sports. We were so wrapped up in our paired matches that we didn't hear Momma when she called out that Dinner was ready. We were near the pool moving back and forth. Finally I noticed Chad and Connie out of the corner of my eye. "Oww," I yelped as Donnie's Epee slipped past my guard to swat my backside. "So if Gary's here practicing with you I guess your joining the team this year?" chad asked. "I don't suppose you have your blade with you? You might need a bit of practice if you want to keep your place on the team," Gary told him. After dinner Gary joined Donnie in the garage to watch us working on Cinderella. He was supposed to get his car and license sometime around Thanksgiving, so found everything we were doing to be interesting. Sophie kept noticing him watching our other attributes as well and said she was happy that Donnie didn't seem to be jealous. Momma set him up in Sophie's old room for the night, then after we all went to bed Donnie asked us both a strange question. You both seem to accept the Native American customs," he started out. "So do you both feel up to trying another one? I mean it is a way in which we honor single guests. And of course it is with mutual consent of each of us here." Sophie looked confused. "You're talking about one of us keeping him company during his stay," I said. "Yes but only if you both agree." Sophie giggled, "Sounds like someone got turned on watching Gary watching us." "I get him first. Until we know how he will react to your situation," I told her. Then leaned over her kissing Donnie so deep and passionately. "It would be my pleasure to Honor our guest," I told him. Pulling on my satin lace trimmed robe I padded barefoot to his door. Without knocking I slipped carefully inside, closing the door behind me. He'd rolled over quickly facing the wall when I'd cracked the door open. Now he tried to lay there, pretending to be asleep. I smiled to myself as I let the robe fall to the floor around my feet then slipped naked into the bed to curl my body against his. Pressing my breasts into his back as my hand slid around his waist moving downward to grip his enraged cock. He let out a soft moan as I kissed the back of his ear. "Shhh, this is a custom among our people, to honor an honored guest." "Wh, What do you mean?" "I am yours for the night, if you want me that is. Or I can just lay here and keep you warm. But it would be seen as impolite to send me away." He rolled onto his back to look into my eyes, "You're serious? Donnie doesn't mind, he won't get mad?" "I would not be here without his permission. Or Sophie's for that matter." I moved over straddling him. And as I moved to take him inside me I felt him stiffen and he breathed, "Oh shittt." Then his hot slipper seed was gushing out all over me and between us. "I'm sorry," he started to apologize. But I covered his lips with mine. After a moment I looked into his eyes, "Thank you, you don't know how much of an honor it is to know you find me that pretty. But now we'll get down to really playing. I took him into my mouth letting my tongue tease him as I felt him growing again. Then before he could get too excited I mounted him quickly. He really was inexperienced, I guided him in what to do next. Taking my time to be ever so patient and gentle. The next morning we showered together, then I left to get dressed in my own room. "So?" asked Sophie. "How was it?" "It was nice. He's inexperienced. But eager to learn," I told her. "You'll want to remember that tonight, don't embarrass him." We had a quick cup of coffee, then we took our practice blades and the four of us moved out to the grass beside the pool to start. I kept the music low so Donnie and Sophie could hear the instructions. We'd paired up me with Donnie and Sophie with Gary. We didn't realize we'd been at it for almost three hours until Momma turned off the stereo. There were tears in her eyes as she said, I've not seen you moving that graceful in years. And Sophie, my goodness you seem to be picking it up so easily." We took a quick rest then had breakfast and a shower. Then Sophie said she wanted to work on Cinderella for a while before we started fencing. I noticed she'd changed into an even shorter skirt than before, and a more sheer halter top, no bra. We were riveting the last piece into place by noon, and she announced that she wanted to do all the body fill work before we started Fencing, so it would have time to cure before we began sanding the next day. With Donnie and Garry helping we had the Bondo work done in no time, then with a grin she peeled off he skirt and slipped on her padding and face mask. Laughing I did the same. It was sweltering inside that padded Fencing suit. I noticed one thing about the suits. They showed ever place an Epee touched them. And it would continue to show until the suite was shaken out and brushed down. "It's a trick of the fabric," Donnie and Gary explained. "In competition the little pouches will be filled with a red tented dust that will show as a strike plain as day. You can't hide those or easily brush them out either. They have to be washed out." At dinner Jennifer and Daphne joined us. "Gary? Is that you?" she was looking around for someone else. "She's not here, Jen. Just me." Gary said. "I was hoping I'd get to see you." Daphne huffed and rushed up to their room. "I'm sorry if I caused you a problem," he said. "No she's just worried I'll start chasing boys and dump her sexy little ass." "Jennifer," Momma warned. "Sorry Momma, but it's true. She should know my appetite by now though." She kissed his cheek. "I better go drag her back down to eat." "I really am glad to see how well Miss Clara's has helped her, I mean her whole attitude is so great. She'd never have made it in the same class as Chelsea." Gary said. "I'm Sorry Gary, I over reacted," apologized Daphne a few minutes later. "Thank you for helping Jen, after your sister and her friends beat the hell out of her." Daphne actually gave him a kiss on the cheek. Daddy, Donnie, Chad and Gary sat around talking about the fencing competitions until almost time for bed. Donnie went to his room for a private talk, and Sophie bit her lip in anticipation. They were gone a longer time than expected. Then Donnie returned and said, "Sophie, go slow ok? I told him everything he needs to know. And he's very open to accepting you at face value. He still thinks you're hot." The next morning sore as hell from the newly revived routine, my body seemed to welcome the torture of another grueling workout. Donnie and Sophie were the sorest of us, but still kept up our pace. Then after the workout, I put on some traditional music and let my body take over as I glided through an unrehearsed routine of acrobatics and sword play, where I let the blades spin flat on my palms. I even did a cartwheel while my blades spun freely above my head to be recaptured as my feet hit the ground. "Can you do that consistently?" asked Gary. Looking puzzled I said, "Sure can't everyone?" "Hell no, Chelsea was never that good," He confirmed. She can do a single spin sometimes a double. But never could she take her hands off her blades without dropping one. He laughed, "And hers aren't sharpened like yours are. That will get you some major points in competition," he promised. Sunday morning dawned all too early for us, but still we were ready. Donnie and Gary had left to get ready and we began packing our things into the car. We planned to leave at noon so we could all meet up and go together. Momma looked almost lonely as she kissed each of us goodbye before Jennifer lead the way out of the driveway followed by Connie and then Sophie and I. At the truck stop on the edge of town we met up with Donnie and Chad. Then Mercedes, and finally Bambi and Jon Paul. "Wow," I said to Donnie over the radio. "It really is a convoy." There were now eight cars all lined up ready to go. We talked all the way to the guys turn off where we pulled over so that Sophie and I, and Connie and Bambi could say goodbye until the weekend. When we pulled into the main gate at the Academy I was surprised not to see Curtis. "Ladies, could I see some ID please?" "Where's Curtis, he usually gets to greet everyone." I heard Jennie ask. "He's feeling under the weather Miss Vandine," he seemed like he was having trouble with names. "Go right ahead." We were getting bottle necked as he insisted on checking everyone's ID first. I pulled around and dropped Sophie's luggage off at her dorm then drove over and found my new parking space at my new dorm. "Miss Kyla," I told the head dorm mother. "I'll be back I have to make sure my sister gets checked in ok." "Well don't be too long Miss Vandine. I will need you to help one of the new girls find her way around." After a moment she said, "Miss Trudy also wants to see you after the evening meal." I thanked her and headed off to find Sophie, she was almost the center of attention. "Hey, leave that alone, don't open it." she was getting upset with someone. "Young lady, weapons are not allowed in school, that's twenty demerits. And I'll have to confiscate those." "Excuse me," I interrupted. "Sophie, we are to meet Miss Trudy after dinner. I'm sure she'll be introducing us to the rest of the team." "Team? What team is that?" asked Miss Gardener. "The Fencing Team, these are my two newest members. Now please return those to her. She has Miss Clara's permission to keep them in her room," intervened Miss Trudy. "Sophie, did you bring your Shini as well?" "Yes Ma'am, I left it in Malissa's car with hers." "Very good, please bring them to the gym after Dinner." She winked then walked away. When I got back to my dorm I found a very frightened looking girl standing off to herself. "Hi, I'm Malissa." I introduced myself. "Stacy, Stacy Keech. But no relation to the actor." She thought I wouldn't know who she meant by my reaction. "So no relation to Officer Stadanko, got it. and no jokes about it either I promise." "Good I see you've met," Miss Kyla said. "Stacy, Malissa will be your student guide. If you have any problems just let one of us know." "Are you ready to be plunged into the full time world of teenage girls?" I was carrying one of her bags. "I, I don't know. I mean my Mom said this would be good for me and they say I won't get beat up here. but I'm not sure." Looking at her room assignment I saw we were to be roommates. Her eyes were huge as we passed several half naked girls in the hallway. "Malissa, they split us up this year," complained Connie. "What are we supposed to do?" "Connie, this is Stacy. She's new here. Stacy my sister Constance, but she likes Connie. And that one over there swapping tonsils with the brunette is my sister Jennie and her girlfriend Daphne." I waved to Bambi, "Hey Bambi, over here. come and welcome Stacy Keech." "Well I'm sure glad you don't look like the actor," Bambi said. "Cindy, you know the rules. Go put your panties on if you're going to wander the halls." "Sorry I left them in my room, oh hi I'm Cindy." She held out her hand to Stacy. "Yes I know I have a Johnson. But hopefully I can get it turned inside out next summer." "You mean all the other girls don't mind?" "Heck no, I remember when Malissa here first started last year. She was afraid of people finding out until her first shower room experience. Now look at her." "Yes now look at me," I said as the tips of my fingers smacked the end of her bobbing penis. "Go put on some panties, you know the rules." She stuck her tongue out and spun on her bare foot to head for her room. "Never mind her Stacy, she's just stretching her wings a bit. She really is nice, just overly outgoing trying to compensate for a lack of attention at home." In our room I found Cassidy waiting. "Malissa, I'm so happy we get to be roomies again. Guess who else is in our room?" "Stacy Keech, and Gretchen Wilson," I said. "Oh you must be Stacy, Hi I'm Cassidy." They shook hands. "You sure don't look anything like a TG. But don't worry, we'll have you in total girly fashion in no time." "Cassidy, back it down a notch, Ok?" I said. "So where's Gretchen, I thought she'd be here already." There was a tap on the door, "Girls, may I come in?" Miss Kyla asked. "Yes Ma'am," we all answered together. "Gretchen won't be joining us this year. Instead we have Vanity Crane." She looked around. Then motioned to someone in the hallway, "Come on in dear don't be shy. They won't bite I promise." Vanity was a very shy, short and dainty black girl I could tell by the way she moved and looked so frightened that she was a newly open Trans Girl. I hugged her tightly. "Come on in and make yourself at home." Cassidy and I decided being the veterans in the room we'd let them choose their own areas." "We'll be fine Miss Kyla, Thank you." I said. "What happened to Gretchen?" asked Cassidy. "She's now going to MMA, she's going to be on their fencing team this year." "What? No way, MMA is a boys Academy," Cassidy pointed out. "And so it is. I wonder how many of you will recognize him now that he's started HRT and living as Gregory?" she mused. "Well I better let you get settled in. Orientation is in forty two minutes." She stepped out into the hall, "Cindy, that's five demerits. I know I heard someone else warn you put your panties on in the hallway." We all giggled except Vanity. "Look we know your scared, we told her as we began putting our things away. We've all been the new girl before. But you'll get used to us and everyone else." I told her. "Stacy, you're doing fine." The two of them were wide eyed watching us unpack our undies and our nighties. Finally Stacy said, "None of those were on the list." "Your what a size five or six?" I asked. "A six I think, why?" I tossed her a nightie, it was one of my pink Baby Dolls. "Here just borrow one of mine until you can get your own." I turned to Vanity my look questioning. Looking at the floor she mumbled, "I'm a three." "Oh my, we better get busy if we're going to find you a nightie by bed time." I pulled open the central table and pulled out the phone. Then called Jennifer, "Hey we need your help, who in the dorm is a size three?" The only size three I know of is Sophie," she answered. "No wait, there's Camilla up on four," She revised quickly. "Thanks, I owe you one." I told her and hung up. Then dialed Camilla's room. when I asked for her they said she wasn't there. She was looking for a new girl that everyone said was about her same size. I stuck my head out into the hallway, "Hey anyone see Camilla anywhere?" "I'm over here, what room are you in?" "Three Oh Nine, are you looking for Vanity?" "Yeah, you know where she is?" "Yeah she's in here," I said. "Come on in." Camilla was surprised to see she wasn't the only tiny girl in our class. They talked for a few minutes then I asked, "Would you happen to have a nightie or two Vanity can borrow. They didn't think to list them on her school clothing list either." "Have I ever, my mommy always sends me with like a ton. Come on girlfriend lets go pick out a few." She was leading her by the hand out into the hall. We all sat in orientation, and the five new girls were introduced. Then the new rules were gone over just in case someone forgot or didn't get the memos that were sent out. "Cindy, you already have five demerits, five more and you get to be the first to test the disciplinary rules." Miss Kyla warned her. "You'll notice your rooms are larger this year. They also include a sofa, and coffee table," she paused. There is a room directory in each room so you can call each other. Also if you are new and haven't yet called your parents to let them know you're ok, please do so. Your roommates can help you with calling out." OK Ladies, you have thirty minutes till dinner time. Also there is a notice on the bulletin board downstairs, anyone interested in Tai Chi or Kendo please see Miss Trudy and Miss Karen in the gym after Dinner. Oh yes I almost forgot, they still need few girls interested to fill out the Fencing team roster." "Kendo? I never heard of that," Stacy said. But Fencing and Tai Chi are so unlady like, I don't see how they expect anyone to take up those." I finally got around to opening my trunk in my room. one of the first things I took out was my Epee cases. The next were my Tai Chi blades. "Tai Chi is an Dance art form expressed with sharpened blades," I said. And Cassidy giggled at her reaction. "Fencing has been a unisex sport since the middle ages." "I didn't know they offered Fencing," said Vanity softly. "Could I come with you after dinner?" "Sure, and you can meet my sister Sophie." I said. "But we'll have to stop by my car on the way so we can get our Shini." "Shini? You have Shini of your own?" Vanity seemed impressed. "What's a Shini?" asked Cassidy. "It's a bamboo Sword, used in oriental competition. It's actually the Japanese form of Fencing," said Vanity proudly. I stared at her a moment, "You rock girl." She actually giggled, then asked how to go about calling her parents. "Mommy, they have Kendo here. I need my Shini from home," she said about ten minutes into the conversation. Yes my roommate Malissa is on the Fencing team. Maybe I can learn that too." Something was said on the other end that made her frown, "But Mommy, please. If you can mail it to me. No mommy I'm not whining. I just want to join the classes." I held out my hand for the phone, "Ma'am, my name is Malissa. I'm your daughters roommate. I'm sure we can find her something suitable to use until she has her own. But I'm sure they will want you to sign a permission slip. Before you leave." "Are you sure it's ok? I mean she is supposed to be here learning to be a girl so she can get her SRS in a couple of years." "Trust me Ma'am, by this time next week she'll be all girly, you might not recognize her. I started out where she is, last year." I handed the phone back to Vanity, "Thank you Mommy, I have to get ready for dinner now and Stacy still needs to call her parents." As it turned out Vanities parents were staying overnight in the guest house and we got to meet them at dinner. They shared a table with the four of us, and when Miss Trudy and Miss Karen stopped to ask if Sophie and I were ready to meet the rest of the team I told her that Vanity was interested too. "You'll need your parent's permission first Honey. But you can certainly come to orientation tonight." They told her. Then were delighted to have both her parents enthusiastically agree to sign permission slips. "We've never seen her get this excited about school sports," her father said. "And we didn't know that the school offered either of them." Her mother had been listening to me talk about Tai Chi, "Oh I'd love to see a performance. I hear it is so graceful and elegant." "Malissa and her sister are our schools only competitors this year unless we can find someone else interested," Miss Karen said. I hurried to my room and retrieved my blades then we met Sophie at my car to get our Shini. Vanity's Mother walked with us, her father was going to meet us at the gym. I let her carry my Shini, since I already had my blades to carry. There were about fifteen other girls there all standing around with Epee's. then I saw Miss Clara sitting talking with the Colonel. "Is that your instructor?" asked vanity's mother. "No he's the head Master of the MMA. And the Major over there is their instructor." I informed her. Miss Trudy introduced us to the rest of the team. Then said that anyone interested should sign up for Kendo, that the Major had agreed to a joint class on Thursday nights at MMA. And then Karen said that she would be teaching a joint class in Tai Chi on Tuesdays at our Academy. Then she asked if everyone would like a demonstration of Tai Chi. They all wanted to see it. she was pleased to see both Sophie and I stand up and clash our blades together. The three of us put on about a twenty minute demonstration, that ended in much applause. "Vanity Honey, you can use a school Epee until you can get one of your own. But I'm afraid we don't have any extra Shini." Miss Trudy said. "She can use my spare," I offered. "It's in my trunk still." "Thank you," Vanity wrapped her arms around me in a bear hug. "You're welcome Honey, what are roommates for?" Just before we left the gym her mother said, "Don't get me wrong but you do know that Vanity isn't exactly a real girl, right?" "Ma'am, She's as much a real girl as any of the rest of us here." I smiled. "I had my surgery last year, and Sophie is still deciding on hers. Loretta over there wants to wait until after graduation. And I believe there are a few others in this room. so yes she is a real girl to everyone here. she's a sister to us all." Her mother was in tears, "Everyone said she'd be accepted here. I didn't know how much I could believe of that." "We'll take her shopping tomorrow and she can spend some of her back allowance," Sophie informed us. "Back allowance?" her father asked. "Vanity Crane, right?" "Yes." "Born April 2nd, she's here on a Jennifer Grant right? She should have her Debit card plus her back allowance, and she would have gotten a three thousand dollar initial expense deposit on top of her three hundred dollar monthly Allowance back dated to her last birthday." They looked at Sophie like she was crazy. "Didn't she get her checking account register? She was accepted for the grant in June, Jennie signed the papers." "You mean this sample book?" Vanity pulled out the check register. "That isn't a sample. That's the real figure. Oh look you also got the Birthday bonus here too." "How do you know so much about the grant?" asked her Mother. "Our Sister is The Jennifer, of the Jennifer Grants but please don't tell anyone." "We won't. I promise." "Mr and Mrs Crane," it was Miss Clara. "If you would like you can stay over an extra night and take Vanity shopping after school tomorrow." "Oh I wish we could. But we both have to go back to work. Marvin has night shift. And I have to be at the clinic Tuesday morning." "I'll take her shopping," I offered. "I know all the safe places to go to. And I'm sure Stacy will want to go along as well." After that we all went back to our rooms. And Vanity and Stacy began to fit in with the rest of us. I lay there thinking about Gretchen, she'd always struck me as the tomboy type, even if she was a bit stuck up at first. I wondered how her boyfriend was handling her decision to become a boy.
