"Bert, you're acting strange" she said.

"How so?"

"You're acting like a woman."

"So?"

"That doesn't seem wrong to you?" she said.

"No...why would it. What's the matter?" he said.

"You're a man!" she said. She was very upset now, on the verge of tears.

"A man? No Lucy, I am not. My body might look like I am, but really, in my soul, I'm a girl. Just like you."

"Bert! Please stop this! Just act like yourself again!"

"This is me" he said. "But you know, that name just doesn't sound right for me anymore. Please call me Roberta. That's how I think of myself."

"But Bert..."

"Roberta" he corrected.

"Roberta. You're scaring me. I need a drink."

"Not if you're starting your period. You'll be sorry in the morning."

"I'm not on my period. I lied to get you away from the mall, before you embarrassed yourself."

"What do you mean?"

"You were going to try on skirts! Can you imagine what people would think?"

"Hopefully that I have a good figure, and that it shows off my legs well."

"No! They'd think that you're a man in a skirt, and that you must be a fruit or something!"

Bert started crying. Lucy didn't want to hurt him, but she couldn't take it, the way he was acting.

"You think I'm ugly and fat" he sobbed.

"That's not what I said" she replied.

"But its what you think. I wish I was pretty like you, but I'm not. I'll never be beautiful like you. I'll just grow up to be an old maid."

"Bert...I mean Roberta, stop it. You're not fat, and you're not ugly."

"Then why won't you let me make myself pretty? Why don't you want me to wear pretty clothes?"

"Is that what you really want?"

"Yes."

Lucy decided to take a chance. Maybe if she got Bert all dressed up, he would be shocked by the sight of himself in women's clothes. She would play along for now, then shock him at the end.

'Roberta' emerged from the bathtub full of luxurious scented bath oils, having shaved 'her' legs, chest, and armpits. Lucy had promised to treat her like a girl, and would refer to Roberta as 'her' and 'she'. They would just be two women.

Lucy had laid out a set of panties, a bra, and pantyhose for Roberta. She eagerly put them on, then donned a bathrobe before walking to Lucy's bedroom. Lucy started by stuffing the bra full, to the bursting point.

"Did you put a maxipad into your panties, in case you start your period today?" said Lucy.

"Yes, I saw the one you left on the counter for me" replied Roberta.

Lucy shook her head. Not even the thought of a period, which usually freaked men out, seemed to scare Roberta in the least. She handed a lace up girdle to Roberta.

"I wore this for a wedding where I was a bridesmaid. I put on ten pounds, and needed to keep myself thin looking to fit into the stupid dress. I think it will be good for you to wear."

She pulled the laces as tight as they would go, and watched as it gave Roberta the look of curves by forcing the waist to be thinner, with the surrounding areas now wider by comparison. Now when Roberta put on a skirt and zipped it up, 'she' had the look of curves, which made the skirt look much better on her than it would have been otherwise.

Lucy dug out a top she had, which had been a present from her aunt. It was several sizes too large, but she had been reluctant to give it away, since it was a gift from a loved one. It fit Roberta perfectly. Roberta put on her new shoes, and admired herself in the mirror.

"Now for your makeup" said Lucy. She sat Roberta down, and started to apply makeup. She put on quite a bit more than she would wear herself, but she wanted a shocking effect. Therefore, too much makeup was better than too little. Roberta seemed receptive to the idea, and did not protest at all. Not even when Lucy did her nails in the brightest red color she had.

Even the spray of perfume, or Lucy putting jewelry on 'her' didn't make Roberta flinch in the least. She even seemed to *love* it. Lucy then worked with what little hair Roberta had, using a lot of hairspray to tease it into place. She made it look spiky, and as feminine as possible.

Roberta examined the results in the mirror. She looked as close to pretty as she could, given her male body type, and manly haircut. It looked like a man in women's clothes, but Roberta was overjoyed at her new look.

"I am pretty! I feel so wonderful! I'm never going out without a skirt again! I'm never going without makeup again either!" she said.

"Roberta, if you're a woman, tell me something. Do you want to be with a man or a woman?"

"In what way?"

"In bed"

"Lucy, I'm a woman! What kind of question is that? Are you making a lesbian pass at me?"

"Are you a lesbian Roberta?"

"Of course not!"

"Then you want to go find a man for yourself?"

"Duh! How will I ever be a mother if I don't have a man?"

"So you want to lay on your back, make love, and have his sperm fertilize your egg?"

"Then the baby can grow in my womb. I'll raise her, love her, teach her, nurture her. I hope its a girl."

"But Roberta, what do you have between your legs?"

Roberta put her hand down there.

"Oh, I've got a bump of some kind. I had better see my OB-GYN to have that looked at."

Lucy was at her wit's end. She had tried everything to shock Roberta, but it was useless. Roberta was convinced that she was a woman!

"Its getting late Roberta. Lets go to sleep. We can talk about this in the morning."

* * *

When Lucy woke up in the morning, she looked in the guest bedroom. Roberta had already been up, and had neatly made the bed. She could hear noises downstairs, so she headed down.

Lucy found Roberta in the kitchen. Roberta had already showered, and dressed up in a very feminine outfit. She was cooking breakfast, with poached eggs, English muffins, and assorted fruits. Fresh coffee and orange juice were poured into cups at the freshly set table.

"Have a seat" said Roberta.

They two ate together, then Roberta insisted on cleaning up the mess.

"Oh, I chipped my nail polish. I need a touchup" she said, shaking her head.

After she fixed her nail, she asked Lucy to come sit down with her.

"Lucy, I'm afraid I told you a little fib last night."

"What's that?" said Lucy. She hoped that this might be what she had been waiting to hear.

"Well, I was in denial, but over night I did a lot of thinking. I was trying to deny the truth, but you pointed it out to me, and after all the soul searching, I have to agree that you are right."

"That you're a man?" said Lucy.

"No, that I have feelings for you. I've never been a lesbian, but I definitely feel something for you in my heart. I think that I'd like to give it a try. I love you, and want to spend all my time with you. Lets start slow, and see where it goes."

Lucy's mind raced. On the one hand, ever since Bert had become Roberta, he had acted like the ideal partner to her. But she didn't want to be with a woman. She wanted a man. But an idea grew in her head.

"Roberta, I'll do it, but you have to promise me one thing."

"What's that?"

"You know how with lesbian couples, one of them tends to be 'butch'? I want that to be you. When we go in public, or at work, I want you to wear men's clothes, and act manly. When we are home alone, you can be feminine. But if you're willing to be the butch one in public, then I'll agree to do it."

"So you want me to act like a man when we're with others, but I can be my true self in private with you?" said Roberta.

"Exactly."

"If that is what it takes, then that is what I will do. For you my love."

Lucy grabbed Roberta's hand. Her heart beat faster and faster. The two lovers looked into each others eyes. Their lifelong partnership had begun....
