We’re both twenty-nine, so we’ve still got plenty of time.”It popped into my brain that Steve would be an ideal first recruit because he seemed ...o fit the profile I had in mind. At any rate, it wouldn’t hurt to sound him out. I searched my brain for a way to segue into the topic of environmental degradation and came up with, “Yeah, I guess you really have to give some hard thought to bringing a baby into a world that’s in the process of crashing around us, don’t you? You know, it really torques. I wasn'tcrying but was still a little anxious. They quietly awaited my words. Idrew a breathe, "Can I use the restroom, I need just a moment please?"Closing the door I heard them speaking softly, "Yes, by god that isMichael. She wants to live as a woman and we're the first to know of thechange. Her name is Sara though."Then Madison added, "She looks beautiful. I love her hair, a perfectshort cut. That was her in the car yesterday."Avery added, "I wish I could keep my waist that small!" No, to. It was a neighborhood party that her parents were throwing, but there were still some people our age. That night I found myself in a hot tub with Michaela, her friends Deanna, Natalie, my friend Ryan, and some other guy. Michaela’s dad was right next to the hot tub, grilling some burgers and hotdogs for everyone. I never expected to find myself in the events that occurred that night. I mean, Michaela and I had talked about possibly having a little threesome with someone if the chance arose.. I opened the door to find Sarah’s piercing blue eyes looking at me, my heart melted. She wrapped her arms around me and buried her head on my shoulder before I could say anything. “I’m sorry” she whispered in my ear after sometime. In those few moments my heart took over any common sense I had. I didn’t want to allow her in so she could hurt me again but I loved her. I loved her so much that i blocked out all the things my brain was telling. We went up to my room to have some privacy. I sat on.
