Synopsis: The flat-as-a-board girl-next-door returns to school looking like a woman after hormone treatments. And her hormones aren't the only ones going wild...
JASON

Being next-door neighbors kind of made us best friends by default, but we fit so well together, I think it would've happened no matter what. Dylan was definitely a tomboy and was always down to play video games and have burping contests with the rest of the guys, but she maintained her feminine side, too. For every Nerf war, we'd also have a tea partyâI even let her paint my nails a few times. But that's beside the point.
She'd spent the summer before senior year with her dad, who lived in California. When she told me why she was going, she seemed embarrassed, hesitantâand I began to understand why. Her dad, a dermatologist prominent in the medical community out there, had connections with all the top doctors in each of their fields. He'd found someone who would be able to treat Dylan.
See, Dylan had grown up a serious gymnast. Nearly every day for the first fourteen or so years of her life, she'd been in the gym, flipping and leaping and doing whatever else it was gymnasts do. Aside from the time she spent at school and with friends, her whole life was gymnastics. Though her Olympic dreams had been crushed by a torn ACL, her body hadn't quite gotten the message.
Though everyone in her family was at least 5'7", Dylan remained a stubborn 5'2". She'd maybe gotten a tiny bit curvier, but she was still flat as a board. At eighteen, her body still had more in common with skinny, thin-hipped boys than the cultural stereotypes of "womanhood" that boys lusted after and girls tried to meet.
It had been a sore subject growing up, and she'd been the subject of teasing for years because of it. Guys she liked had rejected her by implying they were looking for girls who were a little more "womanly." Luckily, she had me to kick their asses, but it remained a deep wound. She'd begged her mom to see a doctor about it, but her mom was super hippy-dippy and had a distrust of doctors that definitely didn't have anything to do with her dad and didn't let her.
Everyone obviously always joked that we were going to end up together, which we had a good sense of humor about. I did have a crush on her when we were littleâshe had a knockout face with big blue eyes, a pixyish nose smattered with freckles, and naturally wavy blonde hair that she'd kept long since she was a kid. She was gorgeous, and funnyâthere were few reasons not to be attracted to her.
But to be honest, I'm pretty shallow. Dylan's slim body made it easy for her to seem like a kid to me. Though she was my best friend, and I cared about her more than anyone, her flat, board-like figure made it easy for me to keep our friendship platonic and avoid drama.
I'd missed her this summer, though. I was busy too, going to Europe with my family, so it was no big whoop that we hadn't connected much. I was really looking forward to seeing her again. I hoped everything had gone well with her dad, and her treatmentâwhatever it was.
She was scheduled to get back a few days before school started. I waited for her to drive up, and when she turned the corner, I came outside and waved. From the window, I could see her make an excited face and hold up a finger to let me know she'd be out in just a sec.
I began greeting her as she opened the car door, but my breath caught before I could finish. I had no idea what treatment she had undergone, but one thing was certainâit was working.
Her sweet, impish face was intact and her height hadn't changedâbut that aside, she had definitely undergone a change. If her body used to be a board, it was looking more now like a violin. The once straight line of her body was now interrupted by swells and curves. Maybe it wouldn't have been a huge difference to someone who didn't know her as well as I did, but it blew me away. Dylan had
hips.
And an
ass.
And
BOOBS.
"Dude!"
"What?"
"Jason! Stop looking at my tits!" she laughed, tossing her head back.
I relaxed. "No offense, Dylan, but like... I have to look, I'm a dude, and you have
tits.
"
"I have tits," she grinned. "I have
tits!"
"You have tits!"
She laughed again. "I know! Sorry, I don't mean to be a dork about it. I'm just excited. But judging by your reaction, the treatment is working?"
"Um, yeah," I said. "It would appear the treatment is working."
"Don't pop a boner, you horny little goblin," she joked, though that is exactly what I was trying furiously not to do.
"I won't, I won't. But what was the treatment, Dyl? Implants?"
"No!" The pink flush in her cheeks deepened. "Oh my god, people are going to say that, aren't they?"
"No, no, no," I hastily tried to backtrack. "It looks natural, whatever it is."
She sighed. "I hope it does. It is. I've just been doing hormonal treatments, that's all. Apparently some of my hormones didn't fire when they were supposed to, so it's just activating those. It'll wear off once they're all used, so it's not like I'll have double Ds. Just enough to look like a little older and more, um. Womanly."
She definitely looked womanly. It was doing very confusing things to my hormones; I'd never let myself see her this way, and now I couldn't stop.
She cracked a smile. "Now come on! I want to hear all about Europeâand I've missed beating your ass in Call of Duty. Your place or mine?"
DYLAN

It was now a few weeks into the school year, and things were starting to reach a new normal. There had been a weird period of adjustment when I got back. My fellow cheerleaders had been gossipy about my new figure and only backed off when I let them see my titsâno scars, no silicone. Boys were still weird around me, but for the first time I got the feeling that it was due to attraction rather than seeing me as a little sister. Some girls that had never paid attention to me had started shooting me mean looks.
But all of that had seemed to settle down. Even Jason seemed to be looking at my tits less. I still wasn't sure how I felt about that... He was my best friend, but I'd always had a small crush on him. I wasn't his type, so I never considered it being a possibility. But now that my body had changed, who knew. Or I should sayâwas still changing...
Although I figured the bulk of the treatment had already happened, still my body was continuing to change. In the span of a few weeks, I'd gone from a B to a C-cup, and twice I'd had to get my cheerleading uniform altered to account for growth in my bust, my hips, and my ass.
