Rob enterred the crusie terminal. He really needed the vacation. He had just flown into Florida that morning.

Arriving at the last minute, he rushed onto the boat. He showed and got to his room. He saw a letter on the door and opened it. It was address to a Rita. It said to meet him in the dinning hall for dinner. He found an empty table and sat down. As soon as he did that, there were people all around him. One of them was Rita.

"Hi," she said with a smile.

"Do I know you?" Rob asked

"no but I know what you desire and I can help"

"What" Rob said.

"I know you feel like you've always been a woman, don't deny it, I'm sorry you suffered. I'm your fairy godmother and I should have fixed this long ago. when you get back to your room, there will be a pink potion. Take it and tomorrow you'll wake up as Rachel, " She said "or dump it and stay Rob, but you will never lose that longing, that feeling of being out of place. but meet me here for breakfast tomorrow"

Rob was stunned but finished his dinner and left unable to speak from the shock.

He walked back to his room. On the bed was the pink potion. He decided to do it. He took it and drank it. At first nothing happened, then he felt a little warm sensation. Then he started to sweat. He started to feel tingling in his limbs. His stomach began to hurt.

He went to the bathroom and threw up. Then he felt even more hot. Fat started to redistribute through his body. His face started to change shape. He looked into the mirror and saw himself as a girl. By now he couldn't stop sweating. The hair on his face starting falling off.

He went to the sink and washed his face. He could not believe how much hair was coming off. It was like a strip of skin. He tried to wash it away but it kept growing back. His breasts began to swell and his nipples hardened. The fat started pushing out, making them larger than normal.

He ran over to the bed and fell on it, His arms and legs were shaking. His hand touched his breast, and it was soft. He felt his penis begin to shrink slowly. He felt his chest grow in size. He looked at his hands and they were feminine and smooth. He tried touching his penis and felt it become softer and smaller. It was like his body had gone numb.

His cock head began to disappear under the folds of fat. He felt the tip touch his belly button. He felt like he was going to pass out,

The room was spinning and his mind was foggy. He couldn't believe it. He was a girl, a beautiful girl. His, no her hair was dark and wavy. Her eyes were a deep green. She was short and petite. She stood about 5'2". She weighed 115 pounds. Her breasts were large but not huge. They were 34c and firm.

She felt her legs and they were shaped nicely. She felt herself and she was soft. Her hips were narrow. She smiled and reflection smiled back and genuine happy expression. "Hi" she said testing out her voice, it was high pitched. She giggled. "Oh my God!" she thought, "this is so strange!" Her skin was flawless, it was like glass. She looked in her luggage, it was filled with all female items. She opened her suitcase and found a bra, panty set, makeup, lotion, perfumes, nail polish, and hair stuff. The tag on the luggage was for a Rachel.

She tried on the panties and they fit perfectly. She put on the bra and it felt nice. She also put on the panty set. "This feels so good," she thought.

She put on some perfume. She then looked over at the makeup. She started to put it on, finding she just knew what she needed. She finished putting on her makeup and looked in the mirror. She smiled. "I'm a hottie," she thought.

She put on her heels and started to walk. She didn't want to go far because she wasn't sure how she would react, plus she wanted to test out walking in heels. She walked ok in them but she didn't trust herself on the deck of a cruise ship in them yet, so she chose a strappy pair of sandals. She looked at her clothes and for the warm tropical air she decided to wear a sundress. She liked the way it hugged her body and covered her breasts without being too tight.

She went out on the deck, "Wow" she thought looking at the ocean. She wanted to go swimming but didn't want to undress and get wet. It was bright and early and Rachel was glad she had some cute sunglasses to wear. She looked and saw Rita, she was sitting at a table next to the pool. She waved and Rita waved back.

Rachel sat down at the table. "Hey there," she said.

Rita jumped up and came over. "I guess you took the potion, you are such a little cutie." Rita was now a good 5 inches taller than the petite Rachel. She was wearing a white bikini that showed off her perfect figure. Her breasts were large and perky, the bottoms were small enough to show off her ass. Her thighs were toned. "I ordered us mimosas to celebrate your rebirthday" Rita said.

"Thanks, this is great," Rachel replied.

"So tell me, what do you think?" Rita asked.

"It's very strange and I can't believe how fast it happened."

"You are a real pretty girl. You are going to have to get used to the world seeing you as one" Rita said. "I tried to give you training wheels like how to put on makeup, some walking skills and so on. You are going to see though the world treats women differently.  I wish you nothing but love and happiness sweet child" Rita said.

They finished their drinks and got up to leave.  Rachel turned to look out at the ocean, when she turned back Rita was gone never to return.

Rachel walked around the boat. She stopped by the buffet. She looked at the food. She wasn't hungry but the smell of the hot omelets was enticing. She made her way over to the bar. "Can I get a Bloody Mary please?" she asked the bartender.

"Sure thing little lady," the man replied.

She sat at the bar. She sipped the drink. "Omg! This tastes good!" she thought.

She noticed a group of girls who were about her age. One of them came over and introduced herself.

"Hi I'm Jen from San Diego," The leggy redhead said. "Are you all alone?" Jen asked.

"Yes, I've been here since yesterday."

"Well come join us," Jen said. "Our little gang could always use another member" She took Rachel's hand and led her to the group of 5 other women. Rachel was easily the shortest.

"What are y'all doing today? I am thinking of going to the beach if anyone wants to join me" Jen asked.

"I don't know, maybe later," Rachel replied.

"oh come on join us" the women pleaded.

"Ok, I will be there in a bit," Rachel said.

Jen walked Rachel to the pool area. Jen and Rachel were the only ones there.

"I'm not much of a swimmer but I'll try it," Rachel said.

"No problem, we planned to lay in the sun and drink frozen cocktails anyway" Jen said

"Sounds great," Rachel replied.

They found a spot under a big umbrella.

"I am so glad you joined us," Jen said.  the other 4 women with them each introduced themselves

"I'm Katie, I live in San Francisco"

"Tiffany, I'm from LA

"Holly, I'm from Seattle

"And lastly Amy, I'm from San Diego."

Katie was a blonde beauty. She had long straight hair that hung to her shoulders. She wore a little black string bikini top and tiny black thong bottom.  She had a perfectly flat tummy and beautiful legs. Tiffany was a brunette. She had short curly hair and a slender frame. She was wearing a yellow bikini top and green thong bottom. Holly was also a brunette. She was curvy with nice breasts and a round ass. Amy was a strawberry blonde. She was tall and skinny. She wore a pink bikini top with matching bottoms.

The women all laughed and talked.  They were a fun group of friends.

"How do you all know each other?" Rachel asked.

"college. We are all sorority sisters. Are you a college student Rachel" Amy asked

"N-" She started to say, Rob wasn't a college student, but Rachel she was a mystery. "not yet I just graduated high school I start in the fall. What school do you go to?"

They all answered in unison "UCLA."

"Me too!" Rachel exclaimed.

"Oh my God you have to pledge our sorority it is named Delta Gamma" Katie said.

Rachel was shocked. "That's amazing."

"You are going to have to tell us all about yourself. We are dying to meet you," Amy said.

"Ok" Rachel replied. She had to make up a whole new life, so she started.

"My name is Rachel. I'm 18 years old and I just moved to California from Michigan. I grew up there with my parents and grandparents. My mom died when I was young and I was raised by my Grandparents.

I went to public school there. I loved school. I still do. I want to be a lawyer. I love to debate. I went to a private all-girls Catholic High School. I was valedictorian of my class. My grades were so good they accepted me to UCLA early decision. I took a gap year to work for my Grandfather. He was a judge. I am taking a few classes this summer to stay sharp. I hope to major in political science. I think it would be cool to help people."

"Wow that's exciting," Tiffany said.

"So what about your grandfather?" Amy asked.

"He was really smart and successful. He owned his own law practice and then became a judge. He passed away a month ago. He was very sick. It was hard on everyone." Rachel said.

"Oh my god I am so sorry Rachel. I didn't know. That must have been awful" Katie said.

"Yeah it was tough."

"But you are still going to be a lawyer right?" Amy asked.

"Yea I guess I am," Rachel said.

"Good," Amy replied.

"What kind of law do you want to study?" Tiffany asked.

"Maybe family law or human rights," Rachel said.

"Human rights huh" Amy asked with a knowing look. "Do you know what that means?"

Rachel shook her head no.

"It means you are a kind soul that wants to help the less fortunate. I knew I liked you for a reason" Jen said. "You meeting us, it had to be fate"

"I don't believe in fate," Rachel said.

"Come on, you have to. You met our sorority and we all like you. There has to be some sort of meaning behind it" Katie said.

"Okay fine. Yes there is. I need a fresh start, and that is what I am getting here. I promise."

"Well that answers one question at least," Holly said. "and now the important question....what's your boyfriend like? Do you have one yet?"

"No" Rachel said blushing. She wasn't sure did she like guys now. The girls here were cute and she would gladly date any of them "I mean I don't want one" She tensed up, did she just let she was a lesbian slip.

"I see" Katie said. Rachel felt a little relieved.

"What's wrong?" Holly asked.

"Nothing" Rachel said.

"How about we change the subject?" Amy asked. "we could talk about anything. What are your favorite colors? What's your favorite food?"

Everyone was talking, and Rachel was becoming more comfortable with them.

"I like bright colors," Rachel said. "My favorites are green and purple. I like lots of different foods. I'm not picky."

"How about movies?" Amy asked.

"Oh gosh I love to watch movies," Rachel said. "My favorites are Grease and The Sound of Music. I also like Dirty Dancing and Ghost."

"Me too!" Tiffany said.

"I can't believe you like those movies" Katie said.

"What can I say I like old movies and singing" Rachel said

"I bet you have a beautiful singing voice Rachel" Tiffany said.

"Thank you..." Rachel blushed again.

Katie laughed. "I think you should show us sometime. Maybe we can get together later and sing."

"You mean karaoke?"

"Karaoke!!!" They all screamed. "WOOOO"

"Yes Karaoke!!"

***

Later that night Rachel was sitting in her room packing for the trip back home. Her mind kept wandering back to what the girls had said earlier.

She would never admit it, but she really wanted to join their sorority. It was obvious they were all very popular and smart. She imagined herself having a ton of friends in college.

There was only one problem. She couldn't stop thinking about Tiffany.

The girl was drop dead gorgeous. Rachel wasn't sure if she was into girls yet. But there was something about Tiffany that made Rachel feel things she hadn't felt before.

Was it fate?

Rachel packed her suitcase and then laid on her bed staring up at the ceiling. She was trying to decide if she should tell the girls about her feelings for Tiffany. She was afraid they wouldn't understand. They were all so pretty.

If she told them though, she might actually get closer to Tiffany. And she really needed to be close to someone right now.

A few minutes later Rachel heard a knock on the door. She looked around and saw it was dark out. She walked over to the door and opened it.

"Hey" Tiffany said with a smile.

"Hi" Rachel said.

"I hope you don't mind me coming over" Tiffany said.

"Not at all"

"I was wondering if maybe we could hang out tonight" Tiffany asked.

Rachel nodded. "Sure"

"I would like to spend more time with you" Tiffany said. "I don't want to be too forward, but you are just so adorable"

Rachel blushed. "Thanks"

Tiffany smiled. "I know we are going home tomorrow, and I was hoping we could make it a special night"

"Oh okay" Rachel said. She felt her face get hot as she blushed. "l-l-l-l-like how " she stammered

"Well...the stars look beautiful on the deck and it is so late I bet we would be alone" Tiffany said. "meet me there in 15 minutes" Tiffany left Rachel alone for the moment. Rachel decided to go all out she wanted to look her best for this meet up. She put on a short skirt, a tight white tank top and her favorite pair of heels. She was wearing her hair down since she thought it would be easier to style quickly. When she went downstairs she found Tiffany waiting outside. She patted for Rachel to lay next to her on the lounge chair. Rachel sat down.

"Wow" Rachel said. "you look amazing"

Tiffany smiled. "Thank you. So do you"

"You're welcome" Rachel said blushing.

They started looking up at the dark sky. Out on the ocean like this, it was so dark you could see so many stars. There was a warm breeze blowing off the water and Rachel could smell the salty air. Rachel could feel her heart beating faster. She could hardly believe she was spending ttime with Tiffany. She was so nervous. She felt Tiffany grab her hand. She looked over and saw Tiffany smiling at her.

"Relax" Tiffany said. "I'm not going to bite"

Rachel smiled. She felt so safe holding Tiffany's hand. She turned her head over and kissed Tiffany on the cheek. Tiffany grabbed her other hand.

"So I have something to ask" Tiffany said.

"What?"

"Are you a lesbian?"

Rachel felt a cold chill run through her body. She didn't know why Tiffany would even ask such a question. She wondered if she was reading too much into the situation, or if she was making a big deal out of nothing.

She took a deep breath and let it out slowly. "yes, maybe, I'm not sure, it is all a jumble in my head" Rachel said softly.

"That's okay" Tiffany said.

Rachel looked back up at the stars. "I am so confused"

Tiffany leaned in close to Rachel's ear and whispered "Don't worry, I'll help you figure everything out"

Rachel felt her heart skip a beat.  "Can I tell you a secret and promise you won't laugh"

"Of course" Tiffany whispered.

"It's all so new to me. I don't know what I'm feeling. I've never been a woman before" Rachel said.

Tiffany squeezed her hands. "what do you mean?"

Rachel shook her head. "I don't even know where to start"

"Just take your time" Tiffany said. "I will help you any way I can"

Rachel felt her heart race again. "before this trip I was a man and unhappy, fat middle aged man"

Tiffany laughed. "you're not fat, Rachel you are one of the tiniest women I know"

Rachel sighed " I was, I was an older fat man"

Tiffany looked at Rachel. "I don't understand"

Rachel blushed. "I used to be a man. A very hairy, very ugly, overweight male"

"are you joking?" Tiffany asked looking for the punchline.

Rachel shook her head.

"Let's say I believe you" Tiffany said "what happened?"

Rachel felt tears building up in her eyes. "I took a potion, i took a leap of faith, Rachel is always who i was inside and now that I was given an opportunity to be myself I took it, but that's why I don't know about whether I'm a lesbian. I haven't lied to you all, everything I said is true .....now. but it wasn't 5 days ago" Her tiny frame shook with sobs. "i was so ashamed, I was disgusted with myself, I hated the person I was"

Tiffany cupped Rachel's cheek and pulled her into a hug. "I think you are beautiful"

Rachel cried into Tiffany's chest. She felt Tiffany's strong arms wrap around her and comfort her.

"it's okay" Tiffany whispered.

Rachel sniffled. "I'm sorry"

"No, no" Tiffany said. "let it out, cry if you want"

Rachel smiled through her tears. "thank you"

"Do you want me to leave?" Tiffany asked.

Rachel shook her head. "I'm sorry I don't know much about being a girl," Rachel said

"Well then, let's find out together" Tiffany said.

Rachel looked up at the stars. The cool night air blew across her. She could hear the waves crashing against the ship. She leaned her head on Tiffany's shoulder. The taller womanturned they were laying face to face.

"Can I kiss you?" Tiffany asked.

Rachel nodded.

Tiffany held out her hand. Rachel put hers in Tiffany's. Tiffany gently brought their lips together.

Rachel could feel Tiffany's soft tongue slide into her mouth. She could taste the salt from the sea and Tiffany's lip gloss. Tiffany pressed her body closer to Rachel's as they kissed.

Rachel could feel Tiffany's hard nipples pressing against her chest. She could also feel the warmth between Tiffany's legs. Rachel knew that there was a fire burning inside Tiffany. It was burning hot and passionate. Rachel felt herself getting wet.

Tiffany broke the kiss and rested her forehead against Rachel's. They just lay there for a few minutes.

"You make me so happy" Tiffany said.

Rachel smiled. "Me too"

They fell asleep on the deck there, arms encirling each other.

***

The next morning, Rachel woke up to the sound of ocean waves. There was a gentle breeze blowing. Tiffany was still alseep, she looked so peaceful. Rachel became aware of the other people milling about. They had fallen asleep in a public location. She nudged Tiffany, "hey" she whispered.

Tiffany opened her eyes and smiled. "Hi"

"We should get up, we have to get off the boat." Rachel tried not to look sad at leaving this place and these wonderful friends she made.

"I guess" Tiffany said, moving her arm over Rachel's waist.

The two got up and went below decks. The entire group was already awake and eating breakfast. Rachel thought it odd that no one mentioned her sleeping on the deck.

When they finished breakfast, everyone gathered their things and headed outside. Everyone stood there waiting for the captain to give them instructions. Eventually they all said their goodbyes and left. Rachel wasn't sure where to go now that she had a new life she wasn't sure if she still lived in the same place. She would have to figure that part out later.

As Rachel followed the rest of the travelers down the gangplank, the captain came down. He looked at Rachel and smiled. "the boat will return to port in six weeks" he told her. "I hope you enjoy your stay here"

Rachel smiled and thanked him.

As they boarded the train, Rachel looked back at the island. She was happy she had met the people here, and that they had helped her change her life.
