The wind blew dust and last years remnants of leaves across the sidewalk. It was not a big wind, more of a breeze really. It did little more than make most adults crave the safety of air conditioned comfort
However for the children it was just another summers day. Two such children were walking along a cement path towards the center of the park.
One was a red haired girl of about 12 years of age. Her curly hair pulled back and held with a clip. Her almost B cup breasts swinging free inside of a white cut off tee shirt that had tassels on the bottom holding beads. Under this was a simple pair of frayed jean shorts just barely hiding her daisy flowered panties.
Beside her was a younger blond girl about 11 her a cup breasts were snuggled in a bra, that it was obvious she hated wearing. She wore a pink skirt and a lemon yellow top. Her hair in two braided pigtails down her back. Both girls had bangs over the front of their foreheads that they occasionally would brush to the side without realizing it. Both girls were wearing running shoes.
One would expect the two girls to be chatting about maybe icecream, clothes or boys. However...
"Jaci I had nothing to do with your pants." The blonde girl said.
"Dottie I know you are responsible for putting all my jeans in the wash. How am I supposed to play with the boys looking like this?" The flame haired girl replied.
"Yeah right. You have all of two pairs of GIRLS jeans."
"They are boy jeans!"
"Boy cut maybe."
"Your just jealous that I pass as a girl and you don't!"
"Yes you do pass as a girl." Dottie giggled at Jaci's slip.
"That's not what I meant!" however she couldn't help giggling at it herself, knowing full well she put her foot in her mouth.
"So your going to play with the girls and I on the swings?" Dottie asked while skipping along just enough to make the front of her pink skirt billow out.
"Dottie." Lil Jaci stops and drops her shoulders as she gets ready to explain yet again." I'm going to play with the other boys and Keith. I told you that already."
"But you never play with us. I know why. You got a crush on Keith."
"I do not" she blushes. " He is just nice to me unlike the other boys."
"Maybe he has a crush on you as well."
"Dottie it's not like that. We are two boys! Nothing can happen!"
"Nobody see's you as a boy. I bet all he sees is a pretty girl." Dottie dances in front of Jaci with her hands behind her back.
"Do you think he does?" she asks while still blushing. Then realizing what she just did she gasps
"Dottie!! You... you... You and your girlie germs! Get them away from me you .. you .. girlie girl."
"Ha! Your the girlie girl! The Pink's at school even said so." Dottie replies.
The Pink's were an exclusive club at their private school. Only the girliest of girls were ever invited in. This was done with a simple invitation of a pink blouse. Jaci had received the blouse on the last day of school. She knew it was a mistake and wanted to correct it but so far had not had any luck contacting any of the girls from the club.
"That's not true! It was a mistake as the blouse was meant for someone else."
"Sure miss girlie girl."
"I just have to talk to one of them and give it back."
"But why?" Dottie gasped at Jaci. Nobody but nobody ever gave back an invitation into the elite club of the school!
"Cause it's for girlie girls! I'm a girl!" she paused and hung her head as she had done it again.
Dottie just giggled at her sister.
"Your a girlie girl and you have a boyfriend! Jaci and Keith sitting in a tree.."
"What about that boy from the dance? Rob?" Jaci asked with a smirk. Dottie was cut off in mid tease as her face registered the comment.
" I don't know what your talking about. I don't like boys!"
"Isn't that hit across the street?" Jaci asks.
"WHAT! Where? Oh god I look awful! Don't let him see me like this!" Dottie moved around behind Jaci so fast that it was all Jaci could do to not laugh. Which she did anyways.
"That's not funny Jaci! You big meanie!"
" Dottie and Robbie sitting in a tree..."
The two girls alternately teased each other between bouts of laughing.
Strangely enough Rob was indeed on the other side of the street having just come out of a comic book store. He noticed the two girls as they entered the park.
Rob twisted the bag containing the comic he had just bought as he contemplated following the girl he had danced with. He knew he had enough for a soda and icecream and stood there and momentarily daydreamed about taking the blonde girl out but realized she was too pretty and would just laugh at him. With a sigh he headed to the other end of the park to join up with the boys for a round of soccer.

Jaci and Dottie: Boy Troubles Part 2
Kylie sat on the swings with Jenny, waiting for their friends to arrive.
She watched the two girl approach, and smiled at how much the younger one had changed in the last couple of months. When she had first met Dottie, the girl was a wreck, unable to even function in the presence of a male, and now Dottie had danced with a boy, and was starting to have special feeling for him, if the amount of time she spent talking about him was any indication.
“You think Dottie is going to talk about Rob today?” Asked Jenny, who was obviously thinking along the same lines Kylie was.
“Gee, I dont know. She only talks about him on days that end in ‘y’ .”
Both girls giggled.
“Hi guys.” the girl in question said as she and her sister approached.
“Hey Dot. We saved you the middle swing.” Kylie said.
“Thanks.”
Jaci tried to create a “manly” voice and said, “Well, little lady, now that I got you escorted you to the swings, this manly man is going to play with the boys.”
Dottie giggled, and said, “And what are you going to do while your boyfriend plays with the boys?”
“What boyfriend?” Jaci asked.
“The boyfriend you keep going on about. ‘This manly man is doing this, this manly man is going there.’ I wanna meet this manly man boyfriend of yours.”
“I was talking about me! I’m the manly man!”
“That’s not what the Pinks think, girly girl.”
“Ohhh.... I’m not talking to you! You’re the one whose girly germs ...Ahhhh!” Jaci yelled, and then stomped off to see if she could find out what game the boys were playing.
Dottie watched her sister stomp away, and sighed.
“I’m worried about Jaci.” she told her friends.
“Why?” Jen asked.
“She keeps up this whole ‘I’m a boy’ thing up, and she’s gonna get hurt. I know she likes that Keith boy, and if he sees her as a girl, she’s not going to be able to handle it.”
“Yeah, but maybe that’s what she needs to have happen. If Keith hits on her, she’s going to have to choose. To pretend she’s a boy and lose out, or get the boy, and give up the pretend.”
“She’s gonna get hurt.”
“And we’ll be there for her, Dottie. But speaking of boys, has Robbie asked you out yet?” Kylie asked.
Dottie blushed, and said, “No. I dont think he sees me that way.”
“You could always ask him out. It is the twenty-first century, after all. “ Kylie said.
“But what if he really doesnt see me that way?”
“Then he’s the loser. You make a good catch.”
Dottie blushed harder, and then said, “What about you two. Any boys in your futures?”
“Tons. Hundreds, I’m beating em off with a stick.” Jenny said, giggling.
“Oh yes, me too.” Kylie laughed.
“I can believe that. Boys. What can you do with em?” Dottie giggled, and then the three friends went back to swinging.
But every once in awhile, Dottie looked across the park in the direction her sister went. For some reason, the old song “There’s gonna be a heartache tonight” came into her mind.
“I guess all I can do is be there when it happens.” She thought, and then went back to swinging.
End.

The troubled young girl in the tight jean shorts and white top more reminiscent of the 80s than current, even if some of the styles were making a comeback, made her way over the group of boys.
Kieth the young man who had been blessed by puberty with cute muscles, in all the right places, with his shock of brown hair and blue eyes stood apart with dark brown haired Rob. Rob was still filling out but he had promise with his height to one day soon be something that most girls would love to look at, was beside him.
The two boys were chatting animatedly as Jaci sauntered up. It almost looked like Rob was blushing as she walked up.
"Hey guys! So what we gonna play today?" she was hoping it would be something boyish like baseball, even if she couldn't hit worth beans. Her annoying breasts made such a sport less than fun.
"Oh uh. Hi there Jacilynn. I... I... Well later K-man!" and with that Rob left a bewildered Jaci standing there beside Keith.
"What's his problem?" she asked.
"He has a problem talking to cute girls."
"Oh good thing they are at the swings then."
"Well not all of them. I think the prettiest is right here actually." he said.
"Really? Where is she?" Jaci turned around to look for this mysterious girl.
Far away at the swingest Dottie was busy giggling with her friends on the swings. She was a little surprised to see a pale looking Jaci come into the area where the swings were not five minutes after she had left. One look at her face caused her concern and before she knew it she was off of the swing and walking to her sister.
"Jaci what's wrong?" Dottie called out.
"They ...He... there was no room for me to play." she answered a bit vaguely as she got closer.
Normally Jaci wouldn't be caught dead, willingly anyways even if she ended up in a group of girlie girls far too often, with a bunch of girlie girls. However she seem oblivious to how girlie the trio of girls were right now.
"Oh so they said no girls today." Jenny answered with a snicker.
"Yeah something like that." Jaci replied. However this was almost the total opposite of how Jaci would answer.
"Jaci what's wrong?" dottie asked growing scared.
"He.. He..." Jaci started then stopped as if she lost the words.
"Jaci?" She asked her sister again.
"Uh. Well Rob.. He wanted to go on a double date with Keith and well you Dottie." She said.
"WHAT?" Dottie squeaked out not quite believeing the strange words out of her sister's mouth.
"And who is Keith's date?" Kylie asked with a smirk on her face already having an idea.
"Well he asked.... he asked... he asked..." Jaci stuttered out.
Having a sudden bad feeling Dottie had to ask "You?"
"Yes!" and with that Jaci broke down as the tears poured out.

Jaci and Dottie: Boy Trouble Part 4
Drea DiMaggio sat stunned by her kitchen table.
Her two little charges had just came home from the park, and Dottie had dropped the bombshell to beat all bombshells - that two boys had asked the girls on a double date.
Now the girls were rummaging through their respective closets, trying to find the perfect outfits. But there were some differences - Dottie was chatting excitedly as she tried on clothes, while her sister Jaci was shuffling through the motions like a zombie.
“This is definitely a MPP situation.” She had heard Dottie say.
“What’s a MPP?” She asked as she walked into Dottie’s room.
Dottie blushed, and said, “Its from a song by my favorite group, Starlight Butterfly.”
“But what does it mean?”
Dottie blushed, and said in a voice just above a whisper, “Magic power panties.”
“Dottie! You aren’t going to show a boy your panties, are you?”
“No, Tante, I’m a good girl. I just ... it might give me some confidence, knowing I have them on.”
Drea smiled at that, and then indicated Jaci’s room “Your sister okay?”
“I think she’s stunned to discover a boy thought she was a girl, much less pretty enough to ask out.”
“And how about you? I can still remember a certain little girl who would run into my arms if a man so much as said hello to her. You doing okay with this?”
“Honestly, Tante? I’m happy, even if I’m scared too. But I’ve danced with him, and he’s even helped me with a flashback. He’s a good boy. We’ll keep an eye on Keith and Jaci. You know, just in case.”
“Speaking of your sister, we should go see if she’s recovered from the shock yet.”
Drea crossed the hall to Jaci’s room with Dorothy trailing behind her, and opening the door found Jaci standing there in her new skaterstyle acid wash jean skirt with a not quite peach nor yellow top that has only one shoulder strap and a tiny bow on one side.
“Wow, Jaci!” You look great! Keith will love it!” Dottie exclaimed.
“You do look nice, sweetie. You okay with doing this? You dont have to, if you dont want to.” Drea said.
“I gotta keep an eye on my sister so she doesnt get into trouble. “ Jaci said, but blushed at the same time.
She took both Drea and Dottie by the hand, and then asked, “When .... when did I turn into a girl?”
“You were kinda always a girl, like me.” Dottie said.
“But my parents ...”
“Were wrong.” Drea said firmly.
“I dont know how to be a girl!”
“Just act naturally.” Dottie said, “You are pretty girly, when you arent trying to prove how much a boy you are.”
“Not as girly as you.” Jaci said automatically.
“I’ll show you who’s more girly!” Dottie giggled, and grabbed a pillow to hit her sister with.
“No! I’ll show you!” Jaci replied, grabbing another pillow.
Drea playfully pushed both girls onto the bed and started tickling both of them, until they both were giggling too much to keep fighting.
Eventually, the three of them slipped out of their clothes and into nighties, and then slept together in Drea’s bed, dreaming dreams of what tomorrow would bring .....

Jaci was very nervous as she sat beside her sister Dottie in the old styled restaurant.
The boys had decided to treat the two girls to a night out type of date. Two boys two girls, go to theater after a small meal in a restaurant at the boy's expense. This meant that the local A&W restaurant inside the mall where the movie theater's were. It wasn't the normal type of A&W as this one actually had waitresses and booths even if the meals were the same.
There was memorbilia saying Allen and Wright all over the walls, most likely reprints of original adds. Even the waitresses worn different era uniforms. Theirs was a roller skater type of uniform with, what are now called, hot pants and a tank top, tennis style with buttons, green and white top with flared brown short curled sleeves. She didn't actually wear skates but shoes that looked like them.
Their waitress was currently giggling at the foursome. First there was Jaci who couldn't look up from her lap. Then Dottie who had been chatting up a storm only to go blank when asked what she would like to eat by Rob.
Rob himself was trying to melt into the floor beneath the cushions of the bench seat he was on. While Kieth was doing a gold fish impression. His mother was the chaperone and two benches away trying to not laugh openly at the scene.
The waitress took pity on the two girls and asked them to both follow her to freshen up. It seemed the safest of choices available.
The evening had started out rocky to begin with. First there was Jaci fretting over what she should wear as she had gone through her entire closet, twice, looking for anything else to wear aside from the outfit she had picked the night before. Tante Drea had finally gotten the girl, who was only in her panties and bra at the time, to change into the outfit she had chosen the night before then put away her clothes.
While Jaci was supposedly busy putting away clothes Drea had walked into Dottie's room to find Dottie hiding in the closet all dressed up as she had scared herself. Dottie's rainbow skirt and butterfly top had her looking far more like a girl than she thought possible outside of the magic princess uniform.
When she had gotten the reluctant Dottie out of the closet and sat on her bed she went to check Jaci again only to find the girl just finishing putting on makeup she was not allowed to wear. Drea was surprised at just how beautiful Jaci looked with a bit of shadow,mascara, and lipgloss. Gone was the fumbling girl of a few months ago who had made her face look clownish.
She also knew that if Jaci was going out with makeup or at least playing with makeup Dottie would be too. Dottie however was not quite as good as Jaci and needed a few spots of help amid tears. She knew how important a first date was so this time she relented on the makeup.
Amazingly after running between two rooms to get both girls in proper shoes, Dottie had tried to go with 3 inch heels for some reason and Jaci running shoes, purses, and in all get them both ready and somewhat calmed down in time for the boys to arrive.
It was Kieth who had knocked on the door, Rob right beside him, that Drea led into the living room before she called the girls in. Both of them had been shy right away, however Dottie had this habit of chatting when nervous and bluntly asked if she should change, giving many different options to Rob in the span of a minute totally overwhelming the boy.
She wished her camera had worked as she saw a feminine young woman by the name of Jacilynn enjoy her very first meet for a date. Kieth had stared openly at Jaci as she had walked into the room where she stopped not 3 feet from him. It was obvious that at that very moment the boy was truly smitten by the girl. Kieth had brought a mixture of pink, white, and red roses in a fancy plastic wrap. He crushed the stems in his hand as he took in the sight of Jacilynn looking as she did.
Robbie had also brought Dottie some flowers, daisys and pink carnations also in a wrap. He had tried to offer them to Dottie but it took her a full minute to even notice them during her assault of words on the poor boy. Dottie only shut up when she saw them.
"For me?" she had asked. Rob nodded and Dottie gushed tears running into the kitchen. Drea told Rob to stay right there and ran after Dottie.
Jaci and Kieth were locked in a world all there own as they stared at each other without saying anything.
Drea had calmly walked into the kitchen and removed Dottie from actively trying to open the locked back door, Drea had expected this before hand, and just turned the girl around wiped the tears, fixed her mascara runs and walked her back to her date.
Getting the foursome to move out of the door had taken a bit of work but they were finally on their way.
Poor Andrea just sat down on the couch amazed at having to have gone through that before she started to sniffle. A quick speed dial on the phone.
"Ruth I need to.." and she broke apart crying.
Rob was in the back with both girls vainly trying to keep himself under control the short drive to the mall where the movie was going to be. Kieth had taken the front seat in a daze while his mother just laughed. Dottie was on one side while Jaci was on the other. Dottie happily described her favorite foods, in order and detail to Kieth's mother during the drive.
Once at the mall Kieth's mother Diedre, got the foursome out and in order before ushering the nervous couples into the mall and then the restaurant. Diedre watched as the four stiffly, or in the case of the two girls gracefully, sat into their seats. She was a little concerned that the two girls were on one side and the boys on the other but on the other hand she was relieved as well as she didn't want the boys to go too fast either with fast fingers.
Jaci and Dottie followed the older girl waitress into the ladies room. Jaci giggled as she saw the door causing Dottie to blush as they both shared a memory of trying to get into the boys room at this very mall not 4 weeks ago. Once inside the small white and black tiled bathroom the waitress turned on the two girls.
"Sorry about this girls but it's obvious the two of you are on your first date and I just couldn't let you go as you were. First you miss motormouth,"talking to Dottie," need to shut up. Let your date get a word in."
Turning to Jaci"And you miss so painfully shy. Need to look up at your date in the eyes. Trust me girls you will have a much better date. Now freshen up and I'll meet you back out there." with that the waitress left the two girls in the bathroom.
Dottie started to cry and so did Jaci. The two were trying to be strong for the other and managed to JUST not openly sob before going to the bathroom and then checking themselves in the mirror.
It was two calmer and more together girls that came back to the table. Dottie did not launch into a non stop verbal assault and Jaci actually spoke, softly, a few words of her own while looking at Kieth.
When the waitress came around the next time the four ordered burgers and shakes without hesitation. Jaci and Dottie along with Kieth and Robbie all then enjoyed a long but good meal amid many smiles.
Next time the movie theater date.

Jaci and Dottie: Boy trouble, part 6
Dottie’s eyes fluttered, and then opened.
She saw that was laying on what looked like a hospital bed, and beside her were her sister Jaci, her Tante Drea, and Grand-Tante Ruth.
She croaked, and Drea handed her a glass of water.
“What happened to me, Tante? Where am I?”
“You’re in the hospital, sweetie. You’re gonna be okay. Do you remember what happened?”
Dottie thought hard, and then said, “Oh, God. The date ....”
Two hours earlier....
The first part double date had gone well, thanks to the help of a friendly waitress, and once dinner was over the four kids and their chaperone made their way to the movie theater, and tried to figure out what movie to watch.
Its hard to find a good movie for young teens at the best of times - it seems like all the movies are made for younger kids or for older ones. When you have two boys and two girls, that choice is even harder, but finally all four kids agreed to the movie “Turbo”, and so tickets and popcorn were bought, and everyone made their way to the movie.
Things went fine until Robbie made a mistake. He went to take Dottie’s hand, and the girl flinched, and he withdrew, but it upset Dottie enough that she excused herself and went to the washroom.
Unfortunately, she wasnt paying attention, and went into the boys bathroom by mistake. There was a man inside, who yelled at her, and she froze. He started to come toward her, and it was too much for her.
She went into a flashback, and stopped being able to breathe, and collapsed onto the floor, sending the man running for the manager of the theater.
Meanwhile, Jaci had a bad feeling about her sister, and excused herself to go look for her. She got there just in time to see the manager trying to get Dottie out of the boy’s washroom, only every time he got close, she seemed to be getting worse.
She pushed the manager aside saying Dottie was her sister, and grabbed Dottie and eased her out of the washroom, and put her on the floor. She asked the manager to go into the theater showing “Turbo” and get their chaperone, and to call for both an ambulance and for Tante Drea.
Shortly, a female EMT was taking care of Dottie while Jaci apologized to the boys before getting into the ambulance for the ride to the hospital.
Now ...
Dottie listened as Jaci filled her in on what she knew, and the young woman cried, saying how sorry she was that she had lost control like that.
Everybody in the room hugged her, and reassured her that it wasn’t her fault.
Then a doctor came in, and said that Dottie should probably wear a medic-alert bracelet, so if she was alone when something like this happened, the people around her would know what to do.
She sniffled and apologized again, and then said, “I wish I could say sorry to Robbie. He probably blames himself.”
“I had, but Mrs. DiMaggio put me right.” said a voice at the door, and Dottie blushed as the young man entered.
“I’m sorry I set you off, Dottie. I thought you were okay with me. I mean, I’d even helped you with a flashback during rehearsals for our dance together. “
“I .. I thought I was, Robbie. I want to be. I just ....”
“Are still a hostage to what happened to you.” Ruth said.
“I dont want to be anymore. How do I stop?”
“One day at a time, and be willing to try to push through fear sometimes.” Ruth advised.
Dottie thought about this for a long time, and then held out her hand to Robbie. “Will you help me?”
“I... I’d be honored to.” Robbie said, and took her hand tentatively.
“And we all will do what we can, right, Tante?” Jaci said.
“Got that right, sweetie.” Drea said, and hugged her.
Dottie sighed, and lay back in the bed and closed her eyes for a moment, to say a prayer of thanks.
“I’ve got the best support system in the world.” She thought, and then said out loud, “I am so blessed. Thank you all.”
There were hugs, and more than a few tears, and then the doctor shewed everyone out so Dottie could have a rest so she could go home in the morning.
Tomorrow would be a new adventure .....

Author's note:
Gonna have to post this section in two parts as it is taking far more than I thought it would.
The morning sun was not quite shinning into her window as she woke up from yet another troubled dream that she could not remember. Her bedsheets were twisted around her again. Thankfully she had not peed into them, although it had been quite some time since she had last peed in bed. The covers while twisted around her were very warm and inviting. So warm that they seemed to call her back with false promises of sweet dreams.
She was just wondering why she was awake so early when she heard the teltale click of a dish on dish from outside of her door.
"Breakfast!" mumbled a sleepy Dottie.
Rizing from bed involved untwisting her bedcovers, which took a bit, before he naked feet searched off the side of her bed for her pink fluffy slippers. Her pink Disney princess nightgown reached her feet once the slippers were on. Her hair still in its twin braided pigtails Dottie yawned as she made her way to the bathroom.
Not for the first time she wondered, yet again, why she automatically sat to do something as simple as pee. She knew she could easily stand to do it. However it was almost like she had a muscle that wouldn't release if she did that and she always had a squirt afterwards into her panties when she tried to stand to pee. Sitting it just all flowed out. Then a simple wipe with a few pieces of toilet paper and she was done.
At the sink Dottie washed her hands and brushed her teeth. It was silly to do so before breakfast but she felt it was wrong to expose her morning breath to anyone. With her hands washed, teeth brushed, and her face given the once over with the face cloth she left the bathroom for the kitchen.
The smells from the kitchen invaded her nose. She smelled the unmistakable scent of home made hamburgers. Tante's hamburgers meant a picnic, especially at this time of the morning. Smiling for the first time since her ordeal two days ago at the theater, and then the hospital. Dottie turned around and went to take a quick shower instead. She was excited as it had been some time since they last went on a picnic. Her shower done after a few minutes since she didn't wash her hair, she powdered herself with the Tinkerbell lilac and rose scented baby powder before sneaking across the hallway into her room with her nighty just held in front.
From her closet she choose a nice summery yellow summer dress that showed off her small breasts but not too much. It had an optional shoulder jacket if it got cool. Her sandals were a close match for the dress. Her outfit done she sat at her vanity all smiles as she worked on unbraiding her hair, damp in one or two spots but otherwise dry, then brushing it out before putting it into a simple fall down her back with a yellow barrette on each side of her head to hold back her bangs.
On her vanity was her makeup. Dottie stared at the makeup with longing before she sighed and walked away. Tante had made it known to both girls that she thought girls their ages should not be wearing makeup. It was not fair one night of being out with her face on and actually looking like a young woman and now she was limited to being just a young girl again.
With a twirl before her mirror on the back of the bedroom door she stared. It seemed that more and more of her dresses and outfits were being corrupted by the magic princess uniform as they made her look like a girl.
Still better than looking like a boy in a dress.
That done Dottie stepped out into the hallway to greet Tante. She was a bit surprised to see that Tante still looked far from awake. It was almost like she had just woken up. Finding this strange Dottie made her way to the sounds from the kitchen.
Going through the living room into the entrance to the kitchen with it's sliding door hidden in the wall she first saw the edge of the beige counter. The counter top on the right hand side stretched the full length of the wall ending in the double sink where the girls usually washed and dried dishes. There was a small bit of counter before the stove started with it's oven underneath.
That was all normal. So was the back door that sported a new brass lever type latch. What was not normal was seeing that the person doing the cooking was Jaci.
Both Dottie and Jaci had watched Tante cook various meals plenty of times. Jaci had always shied away from helping except to read out the recipes for Tante. Dottie was more hands on and helped mix the various recipes from time to time.
Both girls took home economics in school of course. Even there Jaci had never really stood out as being able to cook more than she was told to. Half of the time it was whatever partner she got that did most of the work. Dottie always wished she could take the class with her sister however the faculty had decided the two girls would not share those classes.
It was therefore shocking to find that not only was Jaci cooking but she apparently was doing so rather well. Far better than Dottie thought she could.
Lil Jaci turned around from checking on her cookies in the oven. Her jean skirt covered by an apron along with her simple old white top. She jumped a little to find her sister Dottie staring at her apparently all made up for a day outside. Jaci immediately felt guilty as she knew that Dottie would not be joining her and Kieth at the mill pond.
The mill pond was an old pond created as a place to store wood floated down from the logging of what is now the greater lake region. During the massive logging that opened up the area there was canals dug from the lakes to the city over fifty miles in length. At the end of that was the mill pond where the logs were stored in water before they were pulled and put onto trucks for the mill.
The logging only lasted a few years and then the canals were filled, tilled over, or reclaimed by nature. The lumber mill was torn down and houses set up in its place. Around the edge of the mill pond trees took root along with brushes. At one time it was thought the pond was polluted beyond recovery however recent tests showed that there actually was no pollution. None of the mills had emptied into the pond just the old trees that were cut and shipped.
Since the trees surrounding the pond were a colorful mix of poplar, ash, oak, pine and spruce it was believed that many of the seeds from various trees had migrated down the canals into the pond. A soil sample taken from an older section of where the pond could have brimmed it's banks showed a minute collection of oils but that was a good six feet from the pond.
The mill pond was never given a real name, mostly because it's actual ownership has never been determined. Everyone knew it only as the mill pond. The pond itself was really not all that far from the school that the girl's went to. On one edge of the pond was a grassy area that was kept short by the occasional lawn mower from the city. There was many signs posted for no trespassing and No parking. Yet it was not uncommon to see families sitting on the edge of the pond having picnics.
It was also known as the place to be for boys to take girls on a date. They knew they couldn't get away with anything as there was always people around but it was still a nice place to be, especially since it was almost smack dab in the middle of nowhere in the city itself.
The day before Jaci had been on the phone with Kieth. She had foolishly agreed to meet the boy at the mill pond for a picnic. She had felt quilty about it and set about making a picnic for the two of them. She was a little surprised at just how easy cooking really was. She had watched Tante do it along with the girls at school but had always held herself back from dipping in.
She knew she couldn't ask Tante to make the two of them a picnic so she set about doing it herself. She was hoping to have it all done and hidden from Dottie before she woke. In the oven was four buns she had made herself along with a small batch of chocolate chip cookies. The hamburger patties were already cooked and in a tupperwear container. The wicker basket had the checkered towel, some knives, cheese slices, and small packages of condiments.
Turning fully to face her sister Jaci opened her mouth to explain when she heard the front doorbell ring. Using the doorbell as an excuse to not face her sister Jaci ran to the door and opened it without looking first. In the doorway was her parents.
"Mommy? Daddy?" she asked.
"Excuse me young.... WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING BOY?" Her father yelled at her in the doorway.
The yelling drew Tante Drea and Dottie fast. Drea tried to turn Dottie away from seeing Jaci's father grab the poor girl and shake her.
"Put her Down Mr. Sevale!" Drea said with anger growing in her voice.
"What the fuck have you done to my son? You were supposed to help him for god's sake. Not this ..this freak!"
"Mr. Sevale! I will warn you to shut your mouth now or I will call the police!"
"You can't hide my boy forever. I got a lawyer fighting to get us control and a Doctor that has some aversion therapy to cure my boy of this girlish foolness."
"Get out!"
"We will get our SON back! Mark my words freak!"
Tante Drea slammed the door in Mr. Sevale's face tears streaming down her face for a few reasons. Dottie in her dress was staring open mouthed and quite pale but it was the sight of a unblinking white Jaci that forced her to move just as the girl started to fall.

Drea hugged the girl into her chest to protect her from the cruel world. She felt her tears fall down her face into the hair of the young girl in her arms. She wanted to make the entire world go away. She still could not believe what had just happened. How could any parent ever do something so...
BUZZ
Drea looked up in annoyance as the buzzer from the kitchen stove started to buzz.
Lil Jaci shook herself and disentangled herself from Drea's arms.
"My cookies!" she exclaimed.
Drea watched the girl, no not just some girl, this girl deserved more than that, her daughter. Yes her daughter, how that hurt to admit, just turned and went back to the kitchen to save her cookies. Drea went to the blue velvet couch that was nearby and collapsed into it, tucking her feet behind her, and buried her head into the armrest. The sobs came, she tried to stop them but they came anyways. She knew she should be strong but..
She felt a small hand on her arm. She looked up from the edge of the couch to see a very scared little, no Dottie was just as much her daughter as Jaci.
"Tante?" asked the scared little girl before Drea hugged her tight. The two sobbed into each other arms while Lil Jaci was busy in the kitchen taking out her last batch of chocolate chip cookies.
Jaci was satisfied with her cookies. She had made a very small batch of maybe twenty cookies. For her first cookies she was rather proud of how they turned out. For a fleeting moment she felt the buried tears come close to the surface. She swallowed them back, she had more important things to do today.
It did not take her long to pack up the hamburgers she had made nor the cookies and two soft drinks into the wicker basket she had found under the sink. She wasn't sure what it was for originally as there was cellophane in the bottom but with that removed and a blanket over top it made a suitable picnic basket.
Her basket done Jaci headed to her room and quickly removed the clothes she had thrown on that morning. Sitting at her vanity she spent quite a few minutes playing with her makeup, interspersed with rereading articles from copied Vogue, Cosmopolitan, and other teen magazines. Black,brown and blue eyeliner made her brown eyes pop while three coats of black mascara, and the same amount of curling, made her lashes look full and lush. The earth toned mix of eyeshadow across the lid and going up to her freshly plucked delicate eyebrows was subtle. So was the tiniest bit of blush on her now flawless skin.
With the makeup done aside from lipstick she attacked her hair with a vengeance. By the time she was done her once flat naturally wavy hair was a mass of curls on her head with tendrils down the front of her face on the sides just before her ears. There was also two longer tendrils that went down either side of her neck touching her bra. For earrings she chose simple hearts with a matching chain and locket for her neck.
With the makeup done she sauntered over to her closet and pulled out an outfit she had never worn before. The black leather skirt was not tight but flared just a bit. It was not the most warmest of outfits. The skirt only came to mid thigh. Paired with it was a red tank top with tiny spaghetti straps.
Examining herself in the mirror she knew she looked hot, really hot. The girl in the mirror looked far older than her meger twelve years. Too much in fact. With a sigh Jaci removed the outfit and put it away before searching her closet for just the right dress. Not too fancy, not too little. In the end she chose a floral pattern dress with a v neck. Tante had never let her buy anything too revealing so the bottom of the neck barely reached her cleavage.
The waist of the simple A-line purple dress hugged her waist while the skirt flared out quite a bit. She put a simple white laced edge slip on and grabbed her open toed pumps for the dress. She sat at her vanity to put on the shoes as well as put on her lipstick. Glancing at the time Jaci cursed as it was later than she wanted to be. She hastily packed her purse and left her room to swing by the kitchen for her basket before leaving via the back door.
The day was beautiful and sunny. She had feared that it would be overcast and rainy but for once it seemed that things were going good for her. As she walked she looked around and anything and everything keeping her mind blank. At the end of the block she spotted a girl in a simple red skirt, white hose or tights, and a black top. However something about her seemed off.
Jaci stared at the girl as she came closer and closer. At the point where they passed each other the girl looked up and she saw that it was Rob. Why Rob was dressed as a girl was beyond her. He looked okay but now that she knew he was a boy she could see it. In his body language, the way he walked and held himself all said boy. Not for the first time she wondered if she gave off that impression. Still Rob was done up rather well. At a guess his mother had helped him get dressed up as his motions gave away that it was not comfortable for him. But why?
Shrugging she hurried on to the bus stop. The entire bus ride to the park where she was to meet with Keith was nerve racking. The park was a small one about a block from the mill pond. They would meet up and spend the day together. Jaci had originally thought about maybe fishing in the pond but looking down at herself she realized that she had chosen to do something else. What that was she had no idea.
As the bus pulled up she saw that Keith was waiting for her at the bus stop near the park. He looked quite nice in his simple black plain t shirt and denim jeans. Even from the window she could see that he was nervous and she giggled. In his hand was a simple flower arrangement. From the looks it was a few dandelions, some wild daisy's, wild sunflowers, and what looked to be a yellow rose of some sort. She knew he had no money to buy flowers and yet he had gotten these for her.
Jaci descended the bus in a rush and ran up to Keith and the flowers. The wicker basket was on her arm as she grabbed the fresh flowers and gave them a sniff. A smile spread over her face as she smelt the fragrance.
"I kinda sorta got them for you."
"They are lovely. Thank you."
"I kinda stole the yellow from a trashcan near a graveyard but I picked the rest myself on the way over." Really it was too much information. Jacilynn laughed at how silly the boy was being. Did she really make boys this nervous just being a girl?
"You uh..."
"Oh do you like my dress?"
"Yes you look so darn beautiful." it was a corny comment that caused Jaci to raise an eyebrow and Keith to duck his head as if he had done something awful. Having pity on the poor boy she smiled.
"Thank you." with that she tread her free arm into his and they walked to the nearby park. The part had cement or paved pathways through it. It was a proper park unlike their final destination. Every tree, flower, bush, mound or bench, while very nice, was made to someones ideal. There was no real wildness to the park. It was just a park dedicated to some dead person, with a fancy brass plack and all, and neither of the two cared a wink about it.
The strolled along the pathways slowly making their way across the park oblivious to the stares of other people. Jaci was lost in his gorgeous blue eyes. She felt her breathing going up and down the entire time they walked. So engrossed just being in his presence that she was surprised to see that they had left the park and arrived at the edge of the mill pond.
Their only immediate company was a mother duck and her small mostly grown goslings. She could see that these goslings were already shedding their grey feathers for the more adult black,white, red and dark blue feathers. At another clearing at the edge of the millpond she could see a couple but couldn't make out what they were doing from this distance.
Snapping out of her reverie she apologized to Keith and knelt down to set up the blanket and the food she cooked. She hoped it was good enough to impress him. Keith almost interrupted her as she kneeled but stopped. When it was as set up as she could manage she stood up again and settled down on the blanket.
Keith had wanted to prevent Jaci from spoiling her dress but the smile on her face as she started to lay things out stopped him. It was so beautiful. She was so beautiful. Yes she was a year younger than him, and he knew that she constantly tried to pass herself off as a boy, nobody believed her at all. But even the girls that were jealous of her had to admit that she was already quite pretty. He could only imagine how she would look when she tried and here she was.
She seemed so... homey as she set about doing such a simple thing. He could easily see this woman setting a table up for him and his children. All the while with a smile on her face from her heart. He knew that women were supposed to be treated the same as men and all that but there was just something about this girl that said she would be happy, truly happy, as a stay at home mom.
He also knew he would never be worthy of such a woman. Unless he could make himself sucessful. He started to think of ways to do just that as the girl of his dreams stood up, brushing imaginary grass from her shapely legs before she glided over the blanked and settled down like an angel landing.
Jaci looked at Keith and smiled at him.
"Well are you gonna eat?" she asked while she held out a hamburger for him.
Keith shook himself just a little causing her to worry that he didn't want to eat her cooking. However from the moment he bit into the burger she made his eyebrows shot up in surprise followed by pleasure in his features. She knew he liked it even before he asked.
"Did your mom make this?"
"Tante and no. I made it. I know it's awful but really I tried." why she felt the threat of tears she had no idea.
"No! God's no! It's wonderful. I wish my mom cooked this good!" he choked out around his burger.
"Your just saying that. It's the first time I've cooked so I know it's not that good." Jaci nibbled on her own burger to shut up and kept her eyes cast down. She did not see the shocked look on Keith's face before she shoved the burger back in.
The two sat and ate the burgers. Keith had two while Jaci barely finished half of hers. She just wasn't that hungry for some reason. When she saw he was finished she unpacked the brown paper wrapped cookies and offered him one. Keith took it and looked at her.
"I .. .I made... well tried to make them anyways. I followed the recipe but they are not as stiff as Tante's." and again she looked down at her lap twisting her hands.
Again she did not see Keith bite into the soft chewy golden brown chocolate chip cookie.
"Ssss goot!" he managed to get out.
Jaci smiled and continued to pick at her burger. She was surprised she she felt Kieth move closer to her. She had been leaning on one hand with her feet tucked under her dress on the one side. She saw Keith's hand next to hers.
"Did you even try one of your delicious cookies?" She looked up while shaking her head. Again those eyes of his caught her and she smiled as she saw him break off a piece of the cookie and approached her mouth with it.
It was like slow motion as his hand came into contact with her lips. She pressed down savoring the taste of his fingers. She didn't know why she was doing this but it felt right.
As she savored the after taste of his fingers she knew what happy was and just as suddenly remembered how it was wrong for her to feel this way.
'No son of mine is gonna be some freak'
"I can't do this Keith. I'm sorry."
'Where did you get this skirt from? Did you steal it you little freak?'
"What did I do wrong?"
'Excuse me young.... WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING BOY?'
"It's not you. It's me.. I ... I.. " she started to cry it wasn't fair!
'You can't hide my boy forever.'
"Please tell me Jaci." Keith moved even closer and pulled her into his arms. She felt herself collapse into those arms. Arms that felt like they could take away everything and protect her.
'We will get our SON back! Mark my words freak!'
"I ... I... My parent's want me to be a boy. I ..I..." she sobbed into his shoulder. She could hear the yelling of her fathers voice in her head. Her mother and her shrill voice.
It was therefor a complete surprise when she felt his lips touch hers. It was like the touch of his lips made all the voices in her head telling her to be a boy go away. She looked deep into his eyes and knew in that moment, more than anything else in the world, she was a girl.
"I think your a girl. I... I... wish you could be my girl. Not that I want to own you or anything but.." she used a finger to shut those wonderful silencing lips.
"I'm too young to date yet."
"We are on a date right now."
"I snuck out of the house."
"So did I"
With a smile on her face Jaci raised her arms around Keith's neck to pull him in for another kiss.
At their house about eight blocks away Dottie had just finished getting herself untangled from Tante on the couch. Tante, still in her red housecoat, was now sleeping on the couch. She heard a knock on the door.
Straightening her dress as best she could she went to answer the door wondering why the person didn't press the doorbell. Opening the door she saw a girl. She wanted to go find her sister so she was going to tell her to go away and come back later.
"Uh Hi Dottie."That got her attention.
"Rob?"

Jaci and Dottie: Boy Trouble, Part 8
Dottie stood in her doorway in shock.
There, in front of her, was the young man who had danced the ballet with her, who had taken her to the movies, who had come to the hospital when she had a panic attack because he had tried to hold her hand.
Only he was in girl clothes.
“Robbie, what are you doing?”
“Can ... can I come in?”
“Okay, but I dont have a lot of time, Jaci is in trouble”
Once the Robbie stepped in, she said, “Now, what’s this about? Are you.... are you making fun of me? Cause if you are ...”
“I’m not! I... Look, Dottie. will you listen?”
Dottie folded her arms under her breasts, and said, “Okay. Spill.”
“Look. I like you. I like you a lot. But when I tried to take your hand at the theater, you freaked out so hard you ended up in the hospital. I ... I know you got really hurt by a man, so I thought that maybe if I looked like a girl you wouldn't be scared of me. So with the help of my mom and my sister, I did this.If this doesnt work, I’ll go home and change. I .... I just didn’t know what else to do.”
Dottie looked Robbie, and thought hard.
“You were willing to be a girl ... for me? I .... I .... That’s the most amazing and romantic thing I ever heard of!” She leaped into his arms, and gave him a solid kiss.
Which was interrupted when Drea came into to the room.
“Dottie! What ... who ....”
Dottie blushed, and said, “Its Robbie, Tante. He ... he made himself a girl, just so I could feel safe with him.”
Drea looked at the blushing young man in the skirt, and said, “Well, I guess you look nice enough. But both of you are a little young to be so serious. and in any case, we have to find Jaci. She was behaving so oddly when she left.”
“Oh my gosh! Jaci! We gotta find her, Robbie. Her parents came by, said all kinds of hurtful things, and then she left with a batch of cookies like nothing was wrong!”
“Do you know where she was going?”
“She told me she was gonna meet Keith at the park by the mill pond.”
“Okay, I better take the car. Can you show me?”
“Sure, Tante.”
“Can I come too?” Robbie asked.
“You okay with going out dressed like that?” Drea asked him
“I walked here. I figure that horse has left the barn.”
Dottie giggled, and then took his hand and led him to Drea’s car.
They made it to the park, and got out and started calling. A few moments later they found Jaci and Keith, looking rather embarrassed, and Keith a a bit of Jaci’s lipstick on his mouth.
“Jaci! Dont you know we were worried sick about you?” Drea said, while Dottie nodded in agreement.
“I’m sorry, Tante. But I dont think you have to worry about me when it comes to being a girl, at least. For the first time, I ... I’m happy I’m a girl.”
“Well, I’m glad to hear that, but you’re still going to get a punishment for going out without telling me where you were going.”
“Yes, Tante.” Jaci said, and then turned to Keith, “I’ll ... I’ll see you again, I promise. “
Keith smiled, and said, “I can’t wait.” Then he noticed Robbie standing behind Dottie in a skirt.
“Dude? What’s with the getup?”
Robbie blushed, and said, “I’ll explain later.”
Drea took Jaci and Dottie by the hands and led the girls back to the car, and after a good scolding of Jaci, decided to only ground her for a week. Then she went to talk with Dottie, who by that point was getting ready for bed.
“So ... Robbie wore a dress for you. To make you feel safe. How do you feel about that.”
Dottie blushed, and said, “Oh, Tante, its the most wonderful thing he could have done for me. And ... and ...”
“And what?”
“When I gave him a kiss, ... my breasts ... they stood out. I ... I think I was .... turned on by seeing him dressed like that. Pretty weird,huh? I mean, I was born a boy, and I never thought I would be interested in a boy, much less a boy in a dress. But ... I ... the way it made me feel to see him like that, I wouldn't mind seeing it again.”
“Be that as it may, Dottie. You’re both too young for serious stuff. I need you to promise me that no matter how you feel, you’ll take it slow.”
“I promise, Tante.”
Good night kisses were exchanged, and finally Drea got into her own nightie, crawled into bed, and fell asleep.
Whereupon she dreamed of a double wedding. Jaci and Dottie in beautiful bridal gowns, Keith in a fine tux, and Robbie in a tux-style dress.
“Please, not for a few years!” she pleaded in her sleep. “I just realized they are my daughters, I dont want to give them away, not yet.”
With that prayer, she fell into other dreams, knowing that the night was passing, and tomorrow would be a new adventure ....

Dottie’s Christmas dinner - A Jaci/Dottie Story
Young Dottie fiddled with the dress she was supposed to be putting on, trying prolong the process as long as possible.
Drea came into her room, and smiled at the fidgeting girl.
“First Christmas dinner with your boyfriend, no wonder why you’re nervous.”
‘Its not Robbie that’s got me worried. Its spending a night with his dad’s family. I ... haven’t been around a lot of adult men for a long time.”
“You’ll be fine, honey.”
“Are you sure you’re okay me going without you?”
“I promised Jaci I would go with her to Keith’s. With her parents on the warpath I don’t want her to be alone. But you better finish getting ready, Robbie and his dad will be here to pick you up pretty soon.”
Dottie put the Christmas dress on, and looked at herself in the mirror. The dress was a rich purple-colored lace dress that went down to her knees, and she had trouble believing the pretty girl she was seeing was her. But being a girl, being pretty, they felt so ... right to her, even if she had been mistaken as a boy at birth and lived most of her short life as one before being sent to Tante Drea’s.
A tear formed in her eyes, and Drea asked, “Sweetie? You okay?”
“Better than okay, Tante. I am so grateful to you, I never would have been able to be a girl without you.”
The two of them hugged, and then the doorbell rang.
“Robbie’s here!” Dottie squealed, and ran for the door.
Drea smiled, shook her head and followed behind.
Robbie wasn’t alone. His father was with him, and another man.
Dottie bit her lip and tried to stay calm.
Robbie noticed, and whispered in Dottie’s ear “I got on something special, just for you.” He lifted the leg of his pants, showing that he was wearing nylons underneath.
Dottie giggled, and it relaxed her enough to say “Hello” to Robbie’s father, and to the other man, who was in fact married to Robbie’s dad.
Soon, they were headed for Robbie’s dad’s house, and there they were greeted by Robbie’s grandfather, and Robbie showed her around the place.
“So you split your time between here and your mom’s?” Dottie asked Robbie.
Robbie nodded. “The divorce wasn’t easy at first, but the fact everybody really loved each other made it possible.”
They sat down for dinner, and the warm love shown by these men gave Dottie the courage to ask Robbie’s grandfather about their living arrangements.
“My son and the man he loves both opened my eyes, and now I am so proud of them, and proud of the man Robbie is becoming.”
“We could open your eyes because you were willing to listen, and to learn, Dad.” Robbie’s father sad.
After supper, Dottie and Robbie went to play video games in the living room.
During a break in the game, Dottie looked back at the three men laughing and cleaning up supper, and then at a small table where the Nativity scene had been set up. She reached over and picked up one of the wise men figures, and then looked back in the kitchen.
“Penny for your thoughts?” Robbie said.
“I was just thinking ... your family, its like you got the three wise men right in your house.”
“Well, my mom and sister are great, but this place is good too.I may be willing to dress up to help you, but I am a boy at heart.”
“I think I can live with that.” Dottie said, and gave him a kiss.
“Merry Christmas, Robbie.”
“Merry Christmas, Dorothy.’
Merry Christmas, From Dorothy Colleen!

Lil Jacilynn was worried. She was twisting her hands back and forth in the passenger seat of Tante Drea's 80's Bmw E something. The car had seen better days. The once white 4 door car had more than a little rust on it's outside. The tailpipe dragged on the ground every once and while. The heater fan blew mostly warm air even if it only had one setting.
Jaci had been surprised when Tante had shown up with the car instead of their usual mini van. The car, or so it was explained to her, had been the first car she had bought new years ago. She had been all proud of it way back then but due to never having a nice place to store it and many a Canadian winter. Time had not been kind to the car. Still Drea often boasted of how "solid British engineering" was so much better.
Apparently the mini van was at some garage getting repaired or something. Still it meant that she had to sit in the old stiff leather seat, that looked more like vinyl to her, and endure the ride to Keith's place.
Not for the first time she wondered why she had gotten dressed the way she did this morning. Yeah it was christmasy with her red mini skirt and the white/pink sweater with the snowflakes on it. But did she really have to put on the makeup and white tights? She had even fretted over her hair so much that Tante Drea had final come and gave her a single side pony tail look.
When she looked in the mirror she saw a teenaged girl of the mid 80's. Thinking this caused her to giggle as this was probably how Tante Drea had looked at her age in this very same car. Jaci looked out the frosted over window at the scenery. It always amazed her, how with just a little bit of snow, the whole neighboorhood looked clean and new. This morning was even one of those mornings where there was an icefrost on the limbs of the trees making them all look like white crystal trees that were so rare and yet so beautiful at the same time.
"Don't touch the window!" Drea admonished her as she reached up with her white mittens. Mittens that were knitted by someone who she had never met. However they were a present from Vieille Tante Ruth, apparently Ruth didn't knit for some reason she was not yet told. Still they were warm.
"If you touch the window it will freeze in that pattern even more."
"Kay.." she replied.
"What's wrong honey?"
"Nuttin" one word answers.. Why ask her questions that only required one answer and then she would ...
"Are you worried about Kieth?"
"No!" she looked at the floor in a vain attempt to hide the blush she felt on her cheeks."
"Don't be sweetie. You have been doing so good lately! I'm so proud of my girl."
Jaci knew what she meant. It wasn't really anything she was trying for at the time. Back during the summer after that magical day with Kieth and his oh so wonderful silencing kiss, she had been not fretting so much about trying to be a boy.
It probably shocked Dorothy more than anyone at school when she showed up the first day in her pink blouse, marking her clearly as a member of the exclusive 'Pinks'. Dottie's mouth had hung open waiting for her at the door when she walked into the living room ready for school.
"Your wearing it." she had said.
"It's a nice blouse."
"But your wearing it."
"Well yeah so?"
"But your ACTUALLY wearing your PINK blouse!"
"Yes I am!" She had replied with a huge smile on her face. Dottie was a little shocked. So much so she walked into the open door of the house, which was quite a feat. Holding her head with the palm of her right hand Dottie lead the way out of the house. The rest of the day had been a mixture of "OMG JACI SQUEAL" or " It's about time they made you part of the pinks." There was also one or two " I'm Soooo jealous!" notably was Jenny who just glared.
"What was the address again Jaci?" drea broke into her thoughts.
"Uhhh.. let me check."
One of the more positive things that had happened was when she won her current pink cased Iphone at a gift exchange at school. Dottie has also been lucky and won a red Samsung version. They were still trying to figure out how to operate it or where they would get a contract to use it. The Iphone didn't actually connect to a network yet, just the home network at home. But it did have an offline mode that made checking things easier.
"122 east Braintree drive"
Realizing that this meant that they were on or close to the street in question made her nervous.
What if they saw right through her to the boy she really was?
What if they hated her?
What if someone there was wearing the same thing as her?
Why didn't she wear her lace trimmed red dress?
Using deep breathing exercises she calmed herself down as Drea hunched over the steering wheel trying to spot the house numbers. It probably didn't help that the old windshield was still the original and therefore pitted by years of dust and stones making it darn near impossible to see out of when someone drove by from the opposite direction.
Lil Jaci started to rub her mittened hands again and looked outside the frosty window. She wondered how her sister was doing over at Robs place. She had left before she had gotten a chance to say goodbye.
She also wondered if anyone would recognize the gift she had left to Dottie. Made to from Santa in her best handwritting. It had taken her a bit to argue with the others in the club but she had gotten Dottie her gift.
As the old Bmw pulled up into the drive of the colorfully decorated house lil Jaci suddenly wanted to run away.
Hiding under a real pine tree in their home was a very well wrapped present with christmasy tinkerbells on the package. The inside of the paper was covered over with packing tape making it near impossible to rip. Under the tape was a cardboard Fedex box. If one looked inside the box they would see a pink colored blouse with Dottie hand stitched over the pink embrodiered school crest.
