Jon stood alone in the bathroom. His own clothes lay crumpled in a pile on the floor. There was also a second pile of clothes stacked on the counter. Women's clothes.
He couldn't quite bring himself to get dressed and he looked down at his near naked body. He still had on his male underwear. He was aware they didn't fit his new body properly but the elasticated waistband did keep them in place.
He looked once again at all the differences from his male body, his near hairless skin, his chest, his flat crotch, his female curves. He knew this should be the dream of every hot blooded heterosexual male but he wasn't really enjoying it that much. He placed his small hands over his breasts and could feel the faintest hint of excitement but nothing more. The experience was just so alien and weird he couldn't bring himself to become aroused. There was something tingling in the back of his brain. He just felt wrong.
Jon also knew he could take the ring off at any time. He didn't want to do that either. His new form was fascinating and he recognised the beauty in it. He was stuck in a kind of mental loop. He wanted to look at it but didn't want to be in it. He drifted into a daydream as his thoughts spun round and round. Even the improved brain skills he now possessed left him completely unprepared for this almost incomprehensible experience.
He was pulled away from his thoughts by a loud bang on the door. "We haven't got all day!" Zoe shouted from the other side of the door. Jon focussed his thoughts. He picked up the first item on the pile. It was pink underwear. He threw it back down. He couldn't bring himself to put them on. It wasn't really that they were women's underwear, it was because they belonged to Zoe that put him off the idea.
Outside in the hall, Karyn and Zoe were leaning on the wall. They were on opposite sides of the bathroom door. Both were beginning to grow tired of waiting for Jon who had entered the bathroom over ten minutes earlier. Zoe had the DTH in her hands and was idly playing with its controls. "Maybe he's, you know, playing with himself." She suggested to Karyn. Karyn giggled at the thought.
"Unlikely. Did you see his face? I think he's too terrified to do anything like that." She said. Zoe kept pushing the same button over and over again.
"Probably," she tried another button, "none of these buttons do anything. Is it locked? It's just the same thing on the screen all the time." Karyn shook her head.
"It's not locked. It only works for Jon." Karyn explained.
"Do you trust him?" Zoe asked.
"Well...," Before Karyn could answer the lock on the bathroom door clicked. The door opened and female Jon slowly emerged. He was wearing pink flannel pyjamas with a white t-shirt underneath.
"See that wasn't so difficult." Karyn told him as he walked into the hall. Jon handed the remaining female clothing over to Zoe. She looked at the items that were left.
"Are you wearing underwear?" She asked holding up a bra. Jon nodded.
"My own briefs and the sport's bra." He stated. Zoe and Karyn stared at him. "I just couldn't, okay? Besides nobody will see them under these." He pointed at the pyjamas. Zoe shrugged. Jon started moving back towards the bathroom. "Okay. I'll get changed back into my own clothes. I'll take the ring off and put it back on just before we head to the party."
"No way." Karyn told him.
"What?" Jon asked.
"We still need to do your hair and make up. You also have to spend time getting comfortable in a woman's body."
"I am comfortable." He insisted.
"Is that why you are walking around like a robot?" Karyn asked. Jon wasn't convinced she was correct. Zoe turned towards him.
"We don't want to make Sarah suspicious. I think Karyn is right." She said. Jon sighed.
"Okay, what's next?" He asked. Both of them grabbed him and pulled him towards the bedroom.
