Clean up

Lucy continues to peel the gooey square patches up off of you and you start to shiver. The gel soaked material had been warm, now the substance was evaporating and cooling you off quickly. You get gooseflesh across your body and your nipples perk up from the cold.

El turns to Lucy concerned. "She's cold, can we get a blanket for her?"

Lucy shakes her head as she removes the final patch. "No, we need to get her cleaned up first. We've got a shower area through there." She indicates one of the doors leading from the room. "She's going to be weak though. If one or two of you want to help her walk and clean her that would be good. I can do it if you want."

Elsie smiles warmly and looks back at you. "Of course I'll help." She says.

Chloe pipes up. "I'll help too!"

Your mother then says. "I'll wash her. She's my child after all."

You say in a tired whisper. "I want Fiona there." This request wasn't just sentimental. If you fell or something you wanted Fiona or Peg there to help, being the two strongest Baileys. Though in your heart you knew that wasn't the only reason you wanted your older sister there.

Peg stops her pacing and turns to look. "I should be there for observation purposes."

You all just look at each other for a moment. It looked like the whole damn Bailey clan was going to help you clean up. A small laugh goes through the room, Lucy just shakes her head and rolls her eyes as she goes about her business. What must she think of her boss's insane mutated family?

Lucy stands back and nods. "She's ready."

You go to sit up...you can't do it on your own. You felt so very weak right now. El reaches forward. Holding your left hand with hers she reaches her right hand around behind your back. You gasp loudly as her hand brushes up your back, your skin danced with wild sensations. "Ohhhh...careful El..."

She is worried. "I barely touched you!"

Peg steps forward. "I was wondering about that. Don't worry, your skin will be super sensitive for a little while, everything will be. It will settle after a while." She adds. "You may also have, well...urges. Female urges. Again, don't worry. It's just your body and mind transitioning to your new form and your new sex organs. It's perfectly natural." Peg turns to the others. "Everyone, please be very gentle with Jesse." Peg turns back. "I know you want to get a better look at yourself, but lets get you cleaned up my dear."

El and your mother help you up to a sitting position. You turn and dangle your legs off the side of the bed. Just doing that had been exhausting, how were you going to make it all the way across the room? You are out of breath as you say. "Wait...wait...I can't...please...just give me a minute..." They hold you up as you nearly swoon.

Everyone was concerned with how weak you were. Fiona steps forward and pushes El and your mother to the sides. "Let me help." She slips her one arm in under your knees and the other goes around your back. Your skin is alive with her every careful and gentle touch. It's not easy for her but she lifts you from the bed with a little grunt of effort. She cradles you in her strong arms. She whispers in your ear. "Don't worry, I've got you Jesse. I've got you."

You throw your arms around her neck and shoulders and rest your tired head against her. You felt safe in your big sister's arms. The goo gets all over her clothes but she doesn't seem to mind one bit. With El in front to open the door, and the rest of the family following in behind, Fiona carries you toward the showers.
