“Do you think I did the right thing, offering to let Tabitha go with group to the state fair,” Tabitha’s mother asked her father Sunday evening after Tabitha had gone to bed.
“I think so,” her husband answered. “We’ve both agreed that Jamie is a solid well raised young man and after spending all that time with his family and their friends, I can’t find any reason to change my mind.”
“You know that this is very much like a date. Our little girl is growing up. Have you noticed how they act toward each other? In her mind, he’s her boyfriend. Judging by the way he responds to her, his mindset isn’t far behind, but I understand from his mother that he’s in denial.”
“That’s the part I don’t understand. It’s obvious that he’s more than a little interested in pursuing a relationship with her. Why is it he doesn’t pick up what she’s laying down?”
“He may be Tabitha’s first boyfriend, but Jamie has had a girlfriend, his first, and recently suffered a bad breakup. She cheated on him. So I’m thinking that he’s a little gun shy.”
“OK. I can see how he might be. But seeing them together at that barbeque, I’d say he’s on a fast track to make it mutual. Doesn’t the state fair usually have a tunnel of love ride? With two older couples along, don’t you think that will be one of the rides that they go on?”
“I heard that Lucille wanted to talk with you this morning. If it’s not too personal, what did she want?”
“If it was anyone else, I’d say it was too personal, but you already know most of it anyway. It was about my wardrobe. Grandma told her about all the clothes I have. Lucille didn’t say so directly but I think even the skirts.”
“Was she upset?”
“No she said that I could were all of them to work. When I told her that they made me look like a girl she told me that most of the customers already thought I was a girl. Is that true?”
“I can’t say if it’s most, but some of them do. So are you going to wear the rest of your skorts?”
“I suppose. But if they already think I’m a girl, how am I supposed to deal with that?”
“I’d say, just go with the flow.”
“But what if they find out later? Won’t they be upset that I’m fooling them?”
“If it comes up, just claim to be transgender.”
“I’ve heard that term thrown around. But I don’t think I am. I mean, I’m happy being a boy, I just like wearing pantyhose.”
“But I’d say after watching you do two fashion shows that you also enjoy other girl’s clothes. The look on your face when you were doing your strut in the skirts spoke volumes. You do like the then, don’t you?”
Jamie looked at the doorway. It wouldn’t be likely that anyone would be near, but he was about to admit something that probably wouldn’t be a good idea if it was generally known.
“OK, so the whole package is kind of neat. It certainly better than wearing boy’s clothes.”
“Well then, why not own it? As I understand it just enjoying the clothes is a kind of transgender.”
Own it, Jamie thought, I should just own it.
“Tabitha, can I ask you a question?”
“You know you can, what is it?”
“Mom and I were talking about me exploring my feminine side. The only feminine clothes that I haven’t experienced is a bra. I try not to notice, but I know you wear one. Would you think it would be going too far if I wore one?”
“With Lucelle’s endorsement of you wearing what ever you want so long as you look professional, I don’t think she’d have a problem with it.”
“But what do you think?”
“I think that you should do what you need to do. If you think you need to wear a bra, then wear a bra. Have you tried it yet?”
“No, Mom’s supposed to pick one up for me.”
“When you put it on, it can be a little tricky to fasten it until you get used to it. If you have trouble, just wrap it around your stomach backward and fasten it; then spin it around and slip your arm into the straps.”
Saturday morning they all congregated at Jamie’s house. He was a little self-conscious. His mother had picked up not one, but four pushup bras in his size. He was wearing one of them around someone else for the first time. He’d experimented at bed time to see how to do it. Last night, he’d finally decided that he had it right. Once on he pulled his flabby pecs up into the cups and looking in the mirror, there was the illusion of breasts. It gave him a kind of thrill.
They would need two cars for them all to go. Samantha’s mother would ride shotgun in his mother’s car and Jamie and Tabitha would be in the backseat. The two older couples would ride in Aaron’s car.
Somehow, Tabitha and Jamie were wearing complimentary outfits. His top was pastel yellow with a yellow cami underneath. His skort was mostly gold tone print on a yellow background. He wore his sling back flats with suntan shear to the waist Leggs support. Tabitha wore a full skirted skort that was mostly shades of blue, nude pantyhose and a light gold top with matching cami.
Jamie's mother wondered again if they coordinated on purpose. In truth, they had. Jamie felt it was kind of satisfying to wear complimentary outfits. It made them look like they belonged together. Jamie mused that it would be nice if they truly did belong together.
On the ride down to the fair, Tabitha sat about halfway between the door and Jamie. They talked in soft tones and Jamie sometimes had trouble hear her and so often had leaned over and asked her to repeat what she had said that he ended up setting quite close to her. She often touched his arm lightly to make a point. At one time, she had said something funny and the leaned together laughing.
Jamie's mom had noticed in the rearview mirror and surreptitiously got Samantha’s mother to notice as well. They exchanged knowing smiles.
At the fair, each of the kids got an all-day bracelet for the rides, but first they walked the midway with the adults following behind. It was about lunch time, so they sampled things like elephant ears and corn dogs. They topped all that off with slushies. Since Aaron paid for Julie’s and Tyler paid for Samantha’s, Jamie paid for Tabitha’s. It just didn’t seem right to ask her to go Dutch when the other guys were paying. Jamie's mother made a mental note to tell Tabitha’s mother that the trip to the fair looked more like a triple date.
Sometime later, after they had toured the exhibits to let the food settle, they hit the rides. They started with the Ferris Wheel. Each couple in a car of their own while the mothers declined to ride, It was a large wheel for a carnival ride and from the top you could see the whole fair. While at the top, he notice the other two guys had their arms around the girls they were with. Jamie wasn’t sure if he should, but with some trepidation put his arm around Tabitha and was relieved when she leaned into him like the other girls were leaning into their guys.
Next they went on the Round Up. A spinning kind of thing where you stood against the wall between two grab bars and centrifugal force held you against the wall while the ride lifted up to about a sixty-degree angle. As if that wasn’t enough after about three minutes of that, the floor separated and returned to the starting position while the wall stayed a the sixty-degree angle for another minute before it joined the floor. As soon as it started spinning, Tabitha reached for his hand and held it until the ride stopped spinning. As they stepped out of their respective spots, Tabitha threw her arms around him and hugged him. He of course hugged her back.
“That was scary,” Tabitha said.
Jamie just reveled in the closeness. It felt good to have her touching him in an intimate embrace. As they exited the ride, Tabitha latched onto his hand and after that they held hands unless getting into a ride precluded it.
After several thrill rides, it was the consensus of opinion that something sedate was called for. There was indeed a tunnel of love. The cars were two seaters so once again each couple got their own car. It was made to look like they were boats floating on water, only the water was only a couple of inches deep and if you looked closely, you could see a raised portion in the center that supported the car so it didn’t scrape the bottom. Obviously, the car rode on wheels. Aaron and Julie took the first car; Tyler and Samantha were next and Jamie and Tabitha were last.
Aaron put his arm around Julie as soon as they sat down and Tyler did the same with Samantha, so Jamie, not to be out done, did the same with Tabitha. Again he was relieved that she didn’t object but seemed to enjoy the closeness. Each car went into the tunnel with a minute or two between them and the car ahead. Inside the lighting was subdued and romantic music played. As the ride progressed, they saw lighted dioramas. Some were romantic scenes like the moon over a beach, others were whimsical and cute. At one point there was a long straightaway and they could see Tyler and Samantha ahead of them as they passed one of them. They were kissing.
Jamie turned to Tabitha to see her reaction. She turned her face toward him with a dreamy look on her face. She tilted her head sideways, just a little and it didn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out what she was expecting. With some trepidation Jamie tilted his head the opposite way and their lips met. It was a magical moment where the rest of the world, the ride, the dioramas, the music and even the car they were riding in faded away. It wasn’t anything like kissing Megan. There wasn’t any underlying passion; it was the meeting of souls; the joining of psyches. Just a slice of heaven right here on earth.
By mutual agreement they ended the kiss and Tabitha laid her head on his shoulder. They kissed three more times before the car abruptly exited into the bright light of day. What had started out in Jamie's mind as friends going to the fair had morphed into a bona fide date. From that moment on they were boyfriend/girlfriend; no doubt about it.
Jamie's mother noted the difference in how they related after that. There seemed to be a glow about them. Their eyes sparkled just a little more when they looked at each other. She didn’t know what happen in the tunnel of love, but she could guess.
Along about five, they were hungry and found a sit-down eating place that served hamburgers fries and milkshakes to make a meal. After they took in a live performance of a local jazz band. They talked softly between themselves.
“It seems like school just got out, yet Monday is Labor Day and school starts the Monday after that,” Samantha observed.
"Freshman orientation day will be Wednesday next week. We’ll have to let Lucille know we won’t be able to work that day,” Tabitha told Jamie.
“Yeah, I’m pretty sure that she knows that Friday will be our last full day,” Jamie replied.
The trip to the fair totally change the dynamic of Jamie and Tabitha’s relationship and everyone could tell, Tuesday, when they went in there were smiles all around whenever anyone saw the two of them together. Kelli came back to the stock room and pried.
“What’s up with you and Tabitha? She’s all goo-goo eyes when she looks at you. When I asked her, she got embarrassed and just said it was a special weekend, but would say anymore.”
“I guess that you’ve teased her too much for her to say anything for fear that you’ll tease her about it.”
“Yeah, it’s in my nature to tease people about things but I feel like something happened between you two. I was hoping you’d tell me what it was.”
“Tabitha obviously doesn’t want it to be common knowledge what we did. But I will tell you that my mother organized a trip to the state fair, my sister and her friend took their boyfriends and her friends mother came along and so I wouldn’t be the odd one out, we invited Tabitha.”
“So let me piece this together. Two couples went to the fair and you and Tabitha went with two mothers as chaperones. Sounds like a triple date. I knew you and Tabitha were becoming friends, but I didn’t think you were dating.”
“Well, it wasn’t supposed to be a date, it just kind of looked that way.”
“Maybe so, but Tabitha, unless I miss my bet, thinks it was a date. I’d go so far as to guess that you kissed her.”
At that Jamie blushed a bright crimson.
“Ah, Jamie’s got a girlfriend,” Kelli said in a sing-song voice.
“Please, Kelli, don’t tease Tabitha. You can tease me if you need to tease anyone, but please don’t tease Tabitha.
“OK, I’ll bite my tongue. I’m betting you’re Tabitha’s first boyfriend, so I’ll cut her some slack. But you, we all know you had a girlfriend before, so you’re fare game. What ever happened to that other girlfriend anyway?”
“We broke up just before the sidewalk sale.”
“Oh yeah. I remember you were in a funk that whole week.”
“Yeah, well the break up wasn’t my idea, though it should have been. She was cheating on me.”
“The good news is Tabitha doesn’t have it in her to do that.” She paused and grinned. “Maybe I ought to tell Lucille not to send Tabitha back here. Seeing as how I caught you necking with your old girlfriend. Wouldn’t want to tempt the two of you during working hours."
“Jamie, since you’ve got freshie day tomorrow morning, I’ll give you a reprieve on the pantyhose until you get back. It’s your choice to wear them or not tomorrow morning.”
“Thanks Mom, I was going to ask you about that. Though I’m sure that sooner or later the whole school will know that I wore them all summer, I’d like an opportunity to make some friends before I become the laughing stock of the school.”
“You know there’s no school bus for high school. You’ll need to take the regular bus. Once you get your student body card you’ll be eligible for a discount fare.”
“I know that Mom. Julie told me about that when she started high school.
Comments
So school is about to start……
Jamie and Tabitha have become an item, and Jamie has not only admitted he likes wearing girls clothing, but he is now wearing a bra along with all of his other clothes. Even though his mother has given him the opportunity to go without his pantyhose for his school orientation, even Jamie has faced the fact that it is only a matter of time before the whole school knows about his summer in girls clothing. After all, it isn’t like it was kept a secret - between his ex-girlfriend’s friends, his mother running around telling every store clerk she meets about him, everyone at the picnic seeing him in obvious girl’s clothes, and anyone who has seen him at work, his clothing choices have been a pretty open secret.
His mother and grandmother, along with Lucille, have conspired to fully feminize him over the course of the summer. So now there are a couple of big questions to be answered. How long before the abuse starts at school, and will it just be verbal or will it become physical? How long before it splashes back on Tabitha, and how will she react to it?
I am certain that Jamie’s sister and Samantha will do whatever they can to protect him, and I expect that Megan will probably stand up for him as well - but it wouldn’t surprise me to see Josh and his friends go after Jamie.
