All Together Now

Kelli couldn’t believe it. It was happening. He was finally meeting the woman he had been lusting after. Jon. A very interesting name. It had a natural feminine allure, a wad of teasing the ear and drawing out desire.

But there was more. Not only was he in the room with the woman he’d been desiring, the beautiful Jon, but standing with her was another woman he knew.

“Spirit?” He asked. Try as he might, Kelli couldn’t ask where he knew her from, but he KNEW her. Spirit. He was sure of it.

“Kelli,” the familiar woman said with a warm but knowing smile, “it’s lovely to see you again dear.”

“Spirit?” Jon asked in a sweet, airy voice.

“Kelli and I met under other circumstances,” Spirit explained, “and I might have used a different name. It doesn’t matter. What matters is that we are here. Together.”

Kelli saw as Spirit’s finger’s danced for a moment. Maybe a nervous twitch? Not that it mattered. Spirit was right. It was their togetherness that was important. It made him feel whole. Complete.

“Your name…” Jon said, stepping toward Kelli, “Something about you is kind of familiar…”

Again Spirit’s fingers danced.

“Of course you two are familiar,” she said, “Kelli, this is my brother Jon, and Jon, you two have met before, only virtually.”

Of course! They must have been playing the game together! But brother? Kelli froze for a moment as he took in Jon’s image. How could this image of femininity be a man? Out of the corner of his eye he could see the movement of Spirit’s fingers. She must really be nervous to be twitching that much.

He refocused. Jon. Brother. A man.

Yes. Now that he was thinking about it, he could see it. How his breasts hung in his bra, how his calfs looked in while wearing heels, how his voice sounded like it could break into a soprano aria at any moment. Yes, Jon was obviously a man. How had Kelli not seen it before?

A new emotion hit him as he felt his cheeks flush. Embarrassment! He had been so attracted to Jon just moments earlier, so convinced, despite the obvious evidence, that Jon was a woman! Kelli couldn’t believe that he’d been so stupid. Jon was practically the embodiment of manhood! He was glad that Spirit had pointed out his error. The last thing he would want was for someone to get confused about his sexuality.

“I can’t quite remember the game,” Kelli said, “but I’m glad to meet you in person.”

He reached out with one dainty and and shook Jon’s own, admiring how soft and smooth the other man’s skin was, how gentle the grip, again perfect images of masculinity.

“Boy’s,” Spirit’s voice drew their attention back to her, “I couldn’t be more pleased to have you both here. You see… I need your help.”

Kelli’s ears perked up at the sound of that. Being helpful was his jam!

“Anything,” he said emphatically.

“What is it?” Jon asked his sister, a little more hesitation in his soft voice, “I was hoping to reconnect with some old friends.”

“That’s perfect,” Spirit answered with a smirk, “that’ll help with what I need. You see, you two are special, ahead of the curve. Boys like you are unique, but I don’t think that’s how things should be. It’s not fair for you two to be so amazing, while so many others are unable to compete.”

“What are you talking about?” Jon asked his sister.

“Sorry. Maybe I should start at the beginning,” she chuckled at herself, “You see, the world is broken.”
