Chapter 9 -- Gumbo
"We're lost."
"No, we're not," Brian assured me for the third time, the truck bouncing its way from pothole to pothole on the deeply rutted and far too narrow dirt road he'd turned off on. "It's a shortcut."
"A short...

Once home, I had the task of putting my new clothes away. Not that I really wanted to, but I couldn’t just throw them on the bed and expect someone else to do it. For the first time in my life, I contemplated what it would be like to be a truly spoiled princess. It kept my mood from going sour,...

I must have driven home that morning, but I have no memory of it. I woke up in my own bed with Jordan at my door saying something that didn’t register,
“Dad wants you down at the dealership,” she said again. I’d heard her the first time but hadn’t responded. “Hunt? You alive in ...

Chapter 8 -- The Family Way
I wasn't sure what I'd expected of our trip shopping... but it wasn't the almost complete and utter indifference we received.
Perhaps I was overestimating my public profile. Perhaps I'd just misjudged how many fol...

As eldest, I usually got to sit up front with the driver when I wanted to, and right now, I did because of the psychological edge it gave me in confidence. Enough confidence to say something like, “You know I’m never going on any dates,” and hope it would stick.
But Donna wouldn’t l...

I reflected that I’d been warned about traveling the back roads of the Texas panhandle alone on my motorcycle. “No one to help you if you get in trouble, Smitty, cause it’s just miles and miles of just miles and miles,” Deke Morgan had said. “And the cell reception is terrible.”

Chapter 7 -- Chocolate Chips
The sound of my phone dinging with a message is what jolted me awake, but it was the smell wafting into my room from the kitchen that kept me there.
Good thing, too. The dream was already fading from my mind, but...

“Jack, I will murder you in your sleep if you don’t tell me how you changed back into a boy after using the camera!” I squeaked, which kind of ruined the effect of the death threat. I banged a fist against the door for emphasis but didn’t do that again because it hurt. Besides, i...

I managed to get out of there with only three new dresses and two of the skort jumpers. Oh, and two skirts to go with the tops we’d gotten earlier. “But I already have slacks to go with those,” I protested.
“Sometimes,” Donna explained, “you just really need a skirt.”
I ...

Newton’s Third Law states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
As such, it should have been no surprise to my friend Michelle when, after she suggested I wear one of her outfits for our night out, I promptly let out a ter...

I tried not to stare at Travis in his musical underwear. Why violins? my mind wondered. Did he have a whole orchestra in his chest of drawers? At least it wasn’t saxophones.
But now that I had thought of saxes, I had a hard time thinking at all.
Megan stepped in front of me, and my ...

"They have a what?!" Jonah asked, seeming on the verge of a fit.
"A baby store," Maria said calmly, trying -- and almost successfully -- to keep the evil glee from showing on her face. "Right next to the magic shop."<...

The bright blue Vespa puttered through the early morning alley called Buchanan Way, stopping in back of a broad garage-style door with a sign saying Serpentine Motors. Somewhere a cat complained about the scraps offered in the dumpster behind Moe Joe Pork’s BBQ Cafe. A crow disputed with a seag...

“Sweet!?” I protested, but that only made them giggle.
Mom suggested “Adorable!” as an alternate description, so I just went back into the booth to take the lovely, sweet, adorable garment off. Easier said than done, I’d forgotten the hook-thing at the back of the neck and managed...

"But mija, you look so cute! Oh, wait," Carmen said, reaching back into the same bag that had held the torture device I already wore and pulling out another, smaller bundle of cloth. "Go put...

Arnie frowned.
He was good at frowning. In fact, it was one of his favorite pastimes. Some days, he would do little more than stand in front of the mirror in the small, cramped bathroom in his small, cramped apartment building and practice frown...

I took the blue dress down from the hanger and looked it over more closely. “How do I even put this on?” I asked.
“Undo the snap at the neck in the back and unzip it,” Mom suggested. “Then just pull it over your head like a t-shirt. Get it settled around your waist and come out he...

“You mean gynecomastia?” Megan suggested. Had Dr. Verre mentioned the word? I didn’t remember. Somehow I did know what it meant so I must have heard it somewhere. Breast growth on a boy. That really wasn’t the situation, but right at that moment, I would have stammered if someone asked fo...

I stood there trying to swallow my panic.
I wasn’t going to be able to get out of this. I might as well be a girl if I were going to look like one and have to dress like one. I looked down at myself again. No one was going to believe I was a boy, anyway.
I didn’t start crying, tho...

I sat there paralyzed, watching Coach make his way to the side door of the gym. I really didn’t know what I was going to do. The incidents at the cafe had shaken my confidence that I was a boy named Pete and not a girl named Gayle.

I didn’t expect to have to fight to keep them out of the changing room, but they both insisted on going in with me! “No!” I told them.
“But we want to see you in the clothes and make sure you actually try them on. And you might need help!” said Donna.
“If I need help, I’...
