Born to Be Ch. 04

Ashley wondered if they looked his way...did they see a boy? Or did they see a girl? The latter was becoming the more obvious choice with every passing day, and while Ashley still wasn't one hundred percent sure how he felt about it. One thing he couldn't deny was, the thought of slipping his true nature right under their noses, being a boy dressed up like a girl...

It felt...kinky...

He clasped his hands tightly together in front of him and locked his thighs, trying to stifle the incoming boner before it had the chance to rise. Who knew doing something like this could feel so naughty? And...fun...

After spending about half their valuable time grabbing up plenty of clothes for him to choose from, Vanessa guided him away from the women's clothing section and straight to the nearest, hair, make-up and perfume area.

"Now here's the fun stuff!" She called out, pushing their cart into the closest cosmetic store. Here, Ashley felt even more out of his element than among the clothes. "Okay, now, we have to find something that both you'll like and we know Selena will just bust a massive nut over."

"Vanessa! Holy crap there's literally people!" Ashley tried to gesture to the crowds of people spread out around. Especially in this little side store, voices were able to easily be picked on here even when the volume was only a whisper, so he was sure somebody heard her lewd statement.

That fact seemed to completely fly over her head though as she happily bounced into one of the nearest aisles and started searching through the array of colored polishes. "Now lets seeeee...where is some nice cute milky pink...hmmm...ah!" She reached out and snatched up a small bottle with the nice soft color inside it. "Start with this one here!"

Ashley reached up and took the offered polish, "This? How...how do I..."

"It's easy!" She exclaimed, predicting his question before he asked it. "Unscrew the cap, and there's a little brush inside, you just dip it, get a nice little dollop and spread it over your nails. It's easy! Though we'll have to pick up some polish remover too just in case you slip up and make a mess." She smiled.

That wasn't all though, they continued perusing the store until they found some more small bottles with liquid floating in them. Various labels adorning them like, 'Seduction, Temptation, Misty Walls, Ocean Blush,' and other poetic names that had little actual relevance to what they smelt like.

Silly, but reading the names and smelling the samples was pretty fun, he couldn't deny that either. A lot of things were coming up in this trip that Ashley found he didn't want to bother resisting. Girl perfume smelled great! He was especially fond of temptation, such a rich sweetness to it, like candy. And with his leaning towards that one among the selection, Vanessa happily purchased it for him.

As for make-up, that was something Ashley was certainly not ready for just yet. He couldn't picture himself curling his eyelashes, putting on lipstick and blush. Heck, he blushed enough already!

So thankfully, Vanessa didn't push him too much with that, she settled on getting him just a tube of lip balm, strawberry flavored of course. Like a practice item, if he was comfortable with that, perhaps they could upgrade to more than just that later on. The two spent the full hour browsing, buying and trying things out, literally having a girls day together that Ashley was enjoying more than he ever thought he would.

She stopped in a soaps and toiletries store as well, picking up his own bodywash and shampoo so that he wouldn't have to borrow Selena's again. Of course, it was again a girly, pink bottle, scented to be fruity, and sweet. Designed to entice and arouse the beast that was his tall, Amazonian girlfriend.

But when everything was said and done, she brought Ashley back to Selena's house with two arms carrying baggies of clothes and Chanel perfume, etc.

Her car idled in the driveway as Ashley stood outside, looking at her through the window, "Okay, remember what I told you. The girlier, the better! Selena wants that, and if it's too uncomfortable, don't worry about it. Selena is happy with everything you've done already so don't feel like you have to do more."

Ashley nodded, "Well, I mean you've been pretty pushy with all this so I feel like I'm being pressured." He playfully teased her but then went on, "No, but actually, today was...a lot of fun. Surprisingly I...didn't hate...shopping." He looked sheepishly at the ground.

Vanessa smiled, "I had a lot of fun too, I hope we can do this again! Maybe with Selena next time, I'll do my best to keep her away from sports bras."

He giggled, "Oh come on, she doesn't have only gym tastes when it comes to clothes."

"Mhm, that's true, she'd get you a garter belt or two also." She put her arm up on the window sill.

Ashley tilted his head, "A...garter belt? What's that?"

And her face lit up, "Ohhhh honey...we are definitely doing this again. But until then! Get in there, pick out an outfit, and seduce your woman when she comes home!" She happily encouraged him as she shifted the car into reverse to back out of the driveway.

"I'll...try?" He called out as she pulled away, sounding both amped up to try and still a little confused.

"You will succeed!" She pulled into the street, "Fight! Conquer! Win!!" Her voice yelled out as the car pulled down the road, driving back to the gym where she was probably going to inform Selena of what was going on, and even if not, Selena only had a few hours left of work. So either way he didn't have much time.

He sighed, "Okay...where do I start...uhmm..." His eyes went down to the bags in his hands, he could try on outfits of course, and try to surprise her as he did yesterday. But something his mind kept drifting back to...was that nail polish Vanessa was so enthusiastic about.

How the simplest little coloration to the ends of your fingers or the tips of your toes could just up their attractiveness level so much. It fascinated Ashley and had him more intrigued in it then pretty much anything else in the bags.

So with a shy smile, he spun on his heel and scurried up the steps, eager to try his next forte into the world of girly things.

Lunar Lifters:

"You did what?" Selena asked Vanessa with a quirked brow.

She stood in her office with a cheeky grin on her face, "I juuuuust made it so you'd have a nice little girly surprise waiting for you at home babe!" Apparently, Selena learned not to trust Vanessa after her escapades with kidnapping Ashley from work and dragging him off to the mall to procure something 'special' for Selena.

When the clock hit twelve, Selena's worry built up and she peaked out her office door to look down at the front desk, where her worries were confirmed, both Vanessa and Ashley were already gone and off on whatever adventure she planned for him this time.

So the moment Vanessa walked back in through the gym doors, but Ashley didn't, Selena called her up to her office and began the interrogation. Where she now learned that Ashley had once again been force fed girly applications by her own best friend.

"Uuugghhh..." Selena's forehead fell into her hands, "You know, I'm gonna start taking away your lunches if you keep kidnapping my boyfriend."

Vanessa laughed, "I'm doing you a favorrrrr thooough."

"Vanessa, seriously, I want this to work." Selena replied, not sounding angry, but stern with her words as she stood up, "I already feel lucky enough with how much he's willing to do for me, if you keep dragging him further into my fetishes, I'm afraid you're gonna scare him away!" She whined.

"Selena..." Vanessa narrowed her gaze, almost sounding like she was scolding a child, "You should've seen him in the mall. He was having fun! What better ways to introduce him to being a girly girl then by having a girly girl take him out?" She put her hands on her hips, "You gotta let me play match maker here."

The taller woman sighed, "That's not the point. I just don't wanna risk losing him. I gotta go home." She said, reaching down to her desk and grabbing up her keys, then turning around to pick up her purse off the floor. "I gotta make sure you didn't traumatize my boyfriend."

Vanessa rolled her eyes, "If you go now you'll ruin the surprise he wanted to give you, which is him all dolled up and sexyyy." She tried to halt her leaving. "You're probably gonna walk in on him half dressed and bummed that he doesn't get to surprise you."

Selena mostly ignored her and walked around her desk, passing by Vanessa and heading to her office door. "No more of this alright? If you wanna go with Ashley somewhere on your lunch break, it's to get LUNCH." She emphasized, "No more trips behind my back, because if anything like this is happening, I at least wanna know so I can gauge Ashley's reactions myself." She explained, placing her hand on the door knob.

The tan woman exaggeratingly blew air upward with her lips, sending a stray brown lock of hair dancing with the sigh. "Fine, no more fun with me and Ashley. Just boring Subway sandwiches or something." She folded her arms over her busty chest, feigning a pout.

"Hey, look at it from my perspective bitch." Selena continued, "If it turns out Ashley does like all the same stuff I do, trying dresses on him, make up and so on, I don't get to see his first time experiencing it, which I really wanna be there for! But I can't cuz you keep stealing it from me you ass. Do you think I didn't wanna see my boy toy try on his first dress?"

Vanessa was able to concede to that, it was pretty damn cute watching Ashley step out of that changing room for the first time.

So she nodded, "Okay, okay I get it. If I wanna take him somewhere I ask permission first."

"Good bitch." Selena left her with, pulling the door open to exit the office, "Your punishment for this is you have to lock up tonight!" She called back as she descended the steps.

"Awww dick!" Vanessa retorted, "Yeah well hurry up! If you hustle you still might get to see Ashley try on some stuff for the first time! You're welcome!! Ungrateful dick bag..." She mumbled the last two words with a comedic smile. Their insults back and forth were never serious, but she still felt a little grumbly since Selena dumped the lock up shift on her last second.

"This means war..."

Back At Selena's Residence:

"Okay...okay..." Ashley blew air out through pursed lips, his hand on his chin as he contemplated the options laid out before him.

He went inside the house and ran straight upstairs to Selena's bedroom and laid out literally everything they bough all over the floor and bed. It was pretty amazing how much they managed to cram into just two shopping bags. But now Ashley was faced with a multitude of decisions, what he wanted to dress up as to please Selena.

His finger tapped his lips as he thought about it, already having disrobed himself and standing naked in the privacy of the bedroom. The nail polish, soaps, perfumes, and shampoos were set down on the bathroom sink adjacent to her bedroom. He planned on taking a shower first after he selected his outfit, and trying on that pink paint that continued to burn itself into the back of his mind.

"Maybe...the purple short sleeve and the skinny jeans? No...no, I wore a purple dress yesterday, just cuz her favorite color is purple doesn't mean I can overload her with purple every day." He bickered with himself, unaware of how girly this action itself was. Spending way too much time contemplating what he wanted to wear to impress his significant other.

But he couldn't help it, after everything Vanessa said to him, his mind was going wild with all sorts of thoughts and possible methods on how to make Selena happy. And to possibly...seduce her.

Ashley never viewed himself as the seductive type, but if he was going to dress like a girl, move like a girl, and act like a girl all in the name of seducing his tall, beautiful, ebony girlfriend. Then damn it he was going to try his best!

"Alright maybe...maybe I should take a shower first...that'll give me more time to think it over. I don't wanna waste too much time just debating on what to wear, Selena could be home any time, so I gotta get ready while I can." He affirmed himself and headed off to the bathroom, going straight to the shower stall and running the hot water. The shampoo and bodywash were already right there and ready, so he looked forward to trying both of those out.

When steam began to drift out of the stall, he placed one delicate leg into the shower first, hissing with delight as the piping temperature kissed his skin with thousands of hot droplets. Then lifted himself over the mini wall the rest of the way and stood inside, the pray battering his petite body and tingling goosebumps spreading out all over. His nipples hardened immediately from the steamy contact and he basked in the bliss of it.

"Haaaah...okay..." He sighed with delight, pulling the shower curtain closed behind him. "I've worn the dress already so...maybe just a shirt and pants...not yoga pants though something different. I don't want her thinking I'm only comfortable with those pants." He talked to himself, as most people usually did when they showered. It for some reason was easier for him to think under the hot spray.

He picked up the shampoo bottle and uncorked it, squeezing out a good palm full of the pomegranate colored gel before recapping it. Then setting the bottle down on the built-in shower shelf, and running the liquid up into his getting wet brown locks. But of course not before drawing in a good long breath through his nose to get a whiff of the scented fluid. "Mmmmmm...that does smell really good." He admired the product, working it into his scalp and hair. "Selena will definitely like this!"

Ashley massaged the soapy suds into his scalp for a good long while as he debated over what other clothing options he had, "Could always do a skirt...maybe a knee high one? Save the super short skirts for when I'm trying to be sexy...and give her easy access to my...clit..." He felt his blush hit him just at the mere mention of that word. Replacing the terms, 'cock, dick, or even the poultry penis' with something so harsh and feminine as clit. It made him shiver, especially the knowledge that, if his boyhood was called his clit, then did that make his backdoor his...pussy?

"Oh God that's so dirty..." He almost giggled like a school girl thinking about all these lewd thoughts. Vanessa would be having a field day with him if he said any of these things in her presence.

These feelings thought definitely weren't unwelcome, it actually felt good to know that he could talk about these things at least to himself without feeling ashamed. That meant that he wasn't as against this little fetish as he thought he would be.

Which in turn, meant that he and Selena's future was becoming more likely to happen with every passing acceptance.

He smiled at this thought and finished lathering the shampoo and conditioner into his hair, now was time for his new bodywash.

Candy and cuddles, that's what was written on the label, scented similarly to the hair wash, fruity and delicious. Selena for sure would just eat him alive if she was here right now. And thinking like that had him applying the gel quite liberally all over his body, soaping himself up good with the red-ish pink suds.

Something else he took notice of as he coated himself in the wash, was just how sensitive his nipples actually were. He had played with them a bit in the past, and Selena definitely gave him some attention. But now he wanted to explore them a bit more himself.

They were covered in pink bubbles and poking out his chest with little bumpy nerves rising up on his skin around them. Ashley brought his fingers up to the nubs and swirled his fingers over them. Immediately drawing in a light gasp and letting his eyelids droop from the sweetly intense ripple of sensations it caused.

"Oooouu..." He cooed; they were such a sensitive part of him. On par with his neck and inner thighs, all spots on the human body that were known to be target spots on girls when you wanted to pleasure them. He could only imagine how distracted he would be if he put a bra on, the cups of the material constantly rubbing his nipple under his tight shirts, and even if he didn't ear a bra, the tightness of all his new tank tops and t-shirts were going to drive him crazy! "Oh God...nnnf..." He chewed his lip, one of his legs lifting up and balancing on his toes behind him while the other stayed flat.

Even he was beginning to take notice now to just how feminine he could really be if he tried, and even if he didn't try! Just his little movements and subtle actions just always showed off how naturally it came to him. Maybe Vanessa was onto something after all, maybe he and Selena were made for each other because he was born to be this way.

It brought a slightly shy, but excited smile to his lips as his fingers began to pinch his nipples between them. Rolling the diamond nubs between his digits to give him sweet twinges of desire in his chest, and down below in his loins. "Mm!" He tried to bite his tongue to prevent the girly squeak from coming out as he pulled his nipples taut. It hurt a teeny tiny bit, but Ashley actually kind of liked it. It made the pleasure pumping from them feel even more delicious somehow.

He was so caught up in the moment of handling his nipples...that he didn't hear the car door slam outside the house...

For maybe another minute or so of twiddling his little nubs, he finally released them. Face flushed, and his little...clit, hard between his legs. Thoughts of Selena's hands replacing his own as she squeezed his breasts, teasing and tugging his nipples to her own satisfaction.

Ashley was getting quite flustered and tried to refocus his efforts on finishing up in the shower. He stepped completely back under the spray and rinsed the suds of his body wash off of him, it ran down his petite, slim body and swirled away in the drain. Followed by his hair next, which he dunked straight under the direct stream from the spigot and let it wash away the shampoo, cleaning his long luxurious locks to give them a voluminous shine.

Now satisfied with his shower, Ashley turned the handle on the wall and shut it down, pulling back the curtain, to the steam filled bathroom and stepped out. He left the bathroom door open so he was sure that the steam would whisk away naturally in a few minutes while he dried off.

He collected two towels from the nearby rack beside the bathroom closet, and wrapped one around his body, tying it securely under his arms so that it covered him from chest to knees. Then to keep his long hair out of his eyes and to help it dry faster, he used the second towel to sweep it up in the cloth, and tied it in a bundle over the top of his head.

Now this was something that he actually had done long before he started trying to be more girly. Since Ashley usually liked growing his hair long, it took forever to dry without the assistance of a hairdryer or a towel. And since he didn't own the former, and didn't know if Selena had one lying around somewhere, he just took the simpler route and wrapped his hair all up to allow the towel to soak all the moisture up and away.

"Okay...now what..." Ashley whispered, bringing a hand to the bathroom mirror to wipe away the foggy steam. He contemplated his options; he could return to the bedroom and resume trying to pick out an outfit. Although he didn't really think about which one he was going to choose in the shower, getting distracted by his nipples and all...

Eventually though, his eyes fell onto the tiny pink bottle of nail polish he had preemptively placed there before, right beside the dull white plastic bottle of polish remover should he screw up and make a mess.
