The Getaway: Part 6

The Getaway
by RogerGirl

  Brandi got out of the pool and dried herself off.  When she was dry, she walked over to the poolside bar and ordered herself a drink.  She had recently turned 21 and Jensen, who was Jennifer for the trip, suggested they go on the trip to spend some time together as sisters.  While they spent a lot of time together as brothers, given their three year age difference they haven't spent much time together as girls.  When Kyla came along, however, that plan was largely abandoned and Jennifer spent most of her time with Kyle.  Brandi got her drink and walked to one of the pool chairs.  While she was a straight male, she knew she made an attractive woman and was enjoying showing off her body.  She put on her sunglasses and sipped her drink under the shade of a large umbrella.  

  She looked around the pool and noticed most everyone was paired off in couples or with friends or siblings.  Andy and Kelsey had ended their brief romance, and Andy was back with his girlfriend Stacy.  Similarly, Kelsey, Shannon, and Rachel were joking together, while Regina sat at the bar talking to Alejandro.  Kevin and Veronica were making out in the shallow end of the pool and they had each taken to their switched roles very well.  She noticed another set of sisters, Denise and Danielle, joking and laughing with each other and wished Jennifer would make some time to hang out with her.  With Jennifer and Nicole off with their boyfriends, she had no one to spend time with like most everyone else did.    

  She was about to get up when a guy sat down in the chair next to her.  The guy had short spiky hair and was wearing a pair of swimming trunks and sunglasses.  He smiled at her and she smiled back.  She recognized the guy as Desiree, Charles' girlfriend.  She had transformed herself into Desmond the day before for a date with Charlene and decided to spend the rest of the vacation as a guy.

"Feeling left out?" Desmond asked her as he noticed her watching everyone having fun with a friend, sibling, or romantic interest.

"A little," Brandi replied, "It was my sister's idea that I come on this trip, but she's been too occupied with her boyfriend."

"I know how you feel," Desmond responded, "I've sort of been the third wheel this week too.  That's why I decided to dress up as a guy.  I'm definitely going to regret cutting my hair so short when this vacation is over though."

"Well, you look pretty good," Brandi said, "you're not as masculine as some of the guys here, but you definitely pass as a male.  Don't worry about the hair, it'll grow back."

"Thanks," Desmond said, "you make quite an attractive woman yourself and I'm a little jealous you have sexier legs than I do.  Since we're both alone, how about we keep each other company?"

"I'd like that," Brandi replied happy to no longer be alone.

  They made plans to spend the day together and they each went to their rooms to change.  A while later they met each other in the lounge.  Desmond was wearing khakis and a polo shirt and Brandi was wearing a short summer dress and platform heels.  He took her hand and they spent the day getting to know each other over lunch and a game of tennis, for which they bought outfits to play in.  While Desmond had only dressed as a guy for the first time the day before, he had grown quite comfortable in his new male identity.  Similarly, Brandi was enjoying spending time with Desmond as he was very kind and chivalrous.  After tennis, they went to the locker rooms to take a shower and change into their previous outfits.   

  Desmond bought them each an ice cream cone and they ate their ice cream as they walked down to the beach.  They finished their ice cream and took off their shoes.  They held each other's hand as they walked along the beach carrying their shoes in their other hand.  As they walked along the beach they passed Alejandro and Regina having a picnic.  As they watched the sunset, Alejandro gave Regina a soft kiss on the lips.  While a couple days ago Regina would have walked off in disgust, she was enjoying spending time with Alejandro and returned the kiss.  Desmond and Brandi smiled as they passed them and Desmond turned to Brandi and smiled. 

"I've had a nice time with you today," Desmond said, "I hope you would consider joining me for dinner this evening."

"I've had a nice time too," Brandi replied, "For the first time on this vacation, I'm having a good time.  Of course I'll join you for dinner."

  They stared into each other's eyes and smiled at each other.  Slowly they leaned in and kissed each other softly on the lips.  They walked together off the beach and put their shoes back on.  They kissed once more when they reached the hotel and left to get ready for their date.  As Brandi walked upstairs, Charlene walked over to Desmond.

"She's cute," Charlene said as Brandi waved to Desmond from the top of the stairs, "I'm sorry for making you feel left out on this trip, but I'm glad you've found someone to spend some time with.  I promise things will get back to normal when we leave on Sunday."

"I know," Desmond said, "I think becoming Desmond has finally let me see how you feel as Charlene.  While I would never give up being a woman, it's fun getting to see things from the other side."

  They kissed and Desmond went upstairs to get ready for his date.  He put on a suit and met Brandi in the lobby.  Brandi was wearing a stylish dress that ended at the knee with a pair of 4" heels.  Her hair and makeup were styled in a simple manner that emphasized her beauty without being overdone.  He took her arm and escorted her to the restaurant.  They entered the restaurant and were led to a table with an ocean view.  Sitting nearby were Brandi's sister Jennifer, Jennifer's date Kyle, Jennifer's college roommate, and her roommate's girlfriend.  Brandi noticed Johnny was no longer dressed as Vanessa and was instead wearing a suit.  Jennifer spotted them and waved them over.  They got up and went to their table.

"Johnny just proposed to Sophia," Jennifer said as Sophia showed them the ring.

"Congratulations," Brandi said, "you two make a very good couple."

"Speaking of couples," Jennifer said looking at Desmond, "who is this your with?"

"This is Desmond," Brandi said as Desmond shook each of their hands.

"You look familiar," Jennifer said looking closely at him, "You're Desiree, aren't you?"

"Yes," Desmond said, "I finally decided to get in touch with my masculine side."

"Well," Jennifer said, "you look cute as a guy.  Just be good to my little sister."

"Don't worry, I will," Desmond said as he put his arm around her and kissed her softly on the lips.

  They excused themselves and went back to their table to have their date.  They both enjoyed getting to know each other and shared a bottle of champagne.  After dinner they shared a dessert and kissed some more.  As they kissed, Brandi opened her mouth to let Desmond's tongue in and Desmond gently stroked her thigh.  At the end of the night, Desmond took Brandi upstairs to her room.

"I know we've only just met," Brandi said, "and while I enjoyed kissing you, I'm not ready to have sex, but I know we've both been sleeping alone for most of this trip and it'd be nice if we kept each other company tonight."

"I would like that," Desmond said as he kissed Brandi again.

  They went inside her room and Brandi went to the bathroom to change for bed.  After removing her makeup, she changed into a short yet simple nightgown and returned to the room.  Desmond had stripped down to his boxers and a t-shirt and smiled at her as she emerged.  They climbed into bed together and Brandi snuggled close to Desmond as they watched TV.  Soon Brandi had fallen asleep, so Desmond turned off the TV and kissed her on the forehead before falling asleep himself.  They had both enjoyed each other's company and were glad they were no longer sleeping in an empty bed.
