Welcome Back! 

But if it's your first time in the C3Verse, then Welcome! 

I wrote this story to stand alone that may be enjoyed apart from the first, but this is actually a sequel. If you want to check out the first one first, look here: https://www.deviantart.com/xarek53/art/AC-1-1-The-Warrior-Queen-Part-1-1040618993 

 For your information this story takes place in a fictional alternate reality to our own where science, technology, and medicine have become far more advanced. Also in this world there are only about 3 Billion people in the year 2018 due to a tragedy that occurred in the early 1900s. This is a reality I call the C3Verse. If this story does well, I'll tell you how the world works in the future. Just imagine everything is in half: half the people, half the traffic, half the number of buildings, half the people going to the fourth year of a Costume and Comic Convention, which is going to be much bigger than last year. Starting with the fact that it'll take place for three whole days!

3 days before The Costume and Comic Convention 2018 

Bree's Apartment in Seattle, Washington 

____ 

Breana Turner had just returned to her apartment after getting off a long shift at work.  

Her boss was starting to drive her crazy. The thirty-nine year old was practically a drag queen with how much make up he wore all day, and his overly dramatic attitude towards things and tendencies to party way too often didn't help. Today he came to work with a hangover, taking it out on all his employees.  

What's worse was this wasn't the first time this had happened. 

Bree glanced down at the black Superb Salon T-shirt and tore it over her head, tossing it on the floor in a corner in anger. She shook out her purple streaked middle of the back black hair and smoothed out her black corset tie tank top which her lace black bra poked out from the top of. She also straightens her black and grey plaid skirt. 

She wished she had someone to complain about it to but Bree's recent fling, Larren, had dumped Bree after the fifth date. "I'm more interested in this great guy." She had said. This had made Bree want to claw Larren's eyes out with her black fingernails. She was sick of girls dumping her 'for a guy'.  

She really wanted to talk to her friend Lexi about it, knowing Lexi would cheer her up one way or another, but Bree hadn't seen her in over two months.  

Alex and Bree, on the other hand, had at least messaged each other once a day and hung out frequently. It was great having two friends Bree could 'almost' always count on.  

Alex was a great guy friend Bree knew she could always talk to and play video games, or board games, or watch movies and tv-shows with. He seemed extremely happy lately and the last Bree had heard from him, he had still been hanging around with some girl named Tiffani, but he never wanted to talk about her. 

Lexi was also a good friend. Good to talk 'girl stuff' with, or have fun at home makeovers and dress up days with. And she was also good for really fun sexual encounters. 

The fact that Alex and Lexi were both the same person didn't matter to Bree. She really liked them both for completely different reasons.  

Alex was getting really good at becoming his alter ego and skinsuited persona Lexi. He still wasn't confident enough to go out in public yet, unless you count the double masking at last year's C3, but Bree believed she could get him outside as Lexi one of these days. 

Two months ago, Lexi had told Bree she had to go away for a bit. Bree tried not to think of it like a breakup because there really wasn't anything there, but Bree really missed her girlfriend. She tried often not to think about the goodbye sex they had had, where Bree had tied her to the bed and taken out the goodbye in Lexi's butt with a strap on.  

Alex had also been getting very busy lately, and they had seen each other less and less throughout the days. They both still tried to call or message each other at least once a day, if not more. 

After Lexi had left, Alex said he was working on a project for C3 and had asked Bree to go with him again if she didn't go with anyone else. Bree readily accepted that even if she was dating someone, she really wanted to go with him no matter what. She even told him he didn't have to go as Lexi and they could both have some fun as normal friends. 

Yet she secretly hoped Lexi would be there, especially now that she didn't have anyone else. 

After mentioning costumes once in the first week without Lexi, Alex had told Bree he had a costume plan that involved Bree and he needed to take some accurate measurements of her body for it. He seemed very embarrassed by the request. 

Bree had suspicions as to what the costume would be with what he needed from her, but he was very tight lipped about it and Bree couldn't torture him like she could playfully torture and bondage Lexi. 

In order to take accurate measurements, he had Bree wear the black latex catsuit she owned. They had an awkward time with it, where he fumbled with the tape measure, measuring her whole body. He had been clearly embarrassed and aroused by her wearing such a costume with him, but Bree knew he would have been even more embarrassed had she been naked. Lexi and Bree being naked, or at least bare skinsuited in Lexi's case, was a common occurrence.  

Alex on the other hand, had never technically been with a naked Bree. 

Bree had had to convince him to do the measurements around her chest and groin areas, but was secretly grateful for how gentlemanly he treated her the whole time. 

Lexi could have probably done it to make him feel more comfortable, but of course, she had 'left for a bit'. 

Bree's head shook in frustration as she opened a half empty bottle of dark red wine and had a glass to ease the day. She plopped on her couch, thinking of giving Alex a call to see if he was available for dinner, when she received a message from him. 

-Alex< Could you do me a huge favor? 

-Alex< The cute girl across the hall has asked me to look after her cat, but I can't make it home to feed her yet. The cat gets really angry if you don't feed it by a certain time and I'm caught up in a meeting.  

Shaking her head in frustration again, Bree was angry with him now. 

He had been using the 'I have a meeting' excuse a lot lately. Bree would have to press him into telling her what his job even was because he never mentioned it to her and tried absolutely everything to avoid the topic.  

He didn't seem to have a regular job as she knew he stayed in his apartment most of the day, but Bree had caught him going out in a nice suit and tie a couple of times in the mornings so maybe he really did have a bunch of meetings.  

And of course the kindhearted Alex was helping someone else. The girl across the hall from Alex was indeed cute, but Bree had seen the same guy stay over on multiple occasions recently. The few  guys that she had seen her with had always been pretty muscular, so Bree didn't think the slim nerdy Alex even had a shot with her. Also, Bree had never seen her with a cat.  

Bree loved cats and thought Alex had mentioned once that he was allergic to them. Maybe some cute girl was abusing Alex's kindness again.  

Bree still didn't respond as Alex kept texting her. 

-Alex< The cat is white and named 'Kitty'. 

-Alex< I know, lame right? There is food on my table. Just let yourself in and feed her. You still have my key right? 

Bree sighed and finally responded. 

-Bree< ya I have a key. And ya I'll take care of the dumb cat 

-Alex< You are amazing Bree. Everything okay? 

-Bree< no not really to be honest 

-Alex< Maybe we could talk about it later. 

-Bree< maybe 

-Alex< Want me to pick up some food for us? 

-Bree< sure. Im on my way to your apartment 

After a moments thought she added. 

-Bree< hurry back please. I need you to cheer me up 

-Alex< I'll do my best and be there before you know it. 

Bree wanted to see if Lexi was available, but she was starting to worry Lexi may be out of the picture and didn't want to hear that bad news if she was. Bree felt really guilty about her relationship with Alex when she had no attraction to him whatsoever with Bree loving to be with Lexi sexually.  

It constantly made her feel conflicted. Alex seemed to not care and had a lot of fun being Lexi, so Bree played along and tried to keep her feelings for the two separate, though she couldn't deny how messed up it was for her to love Lexi sexually and only love Alex as a friend. And things had been amazing over the year she had gotten to know Lexi. At least up until Lexi had left. 

Refilling her cup of wine, Bree brought it with her down the apartment building hall after grabbing Alex's spare key and locking her own door. 

Unlocking his door, she stepped inside, turning on the light. She let Alex's security system know who was here with a face scan and looked at the table with the unopened dry cat food and a bowl marked 'KITTY'. 

She opened the bag, filled the bowl, and set it on the ground. 

"Here Kitty!" She yelled and plopped herself down on the new comfortable leather couch to wait for Alex, reaching for his remote. 

Bree sometimes wished Alex wasn't so nice. He was always trying to please everyone and it sometimes caused some problems. Of course Bree had taken advantage of him quite a few times herself.  

'Maybe I am being a little too hard on him.' 

He had been really amazing to her lately, and all he wanted to do was make people happy. Especially her. Bree really hoped things worked out between him and this Tiffani girl so Bree didn't feel guilty about not wanting him like she knew he wanted her. 

She sighed and tried to find something to watch.  

Then Bree heard the unmistakable clack of claws and padded steps on the hardwood, but the steps were far heavier than she would have imagined them to be for a normal cat. She turned to look and her heart stopped. 

Standing there on two of her paws, leaning on one arm and clicking her claws against the wall, was an over six foot tall anthropomorphic white female cat. 

She had slick and thick fur all over her lithe and feminine body and a large round head. The inside of her ears and nose were pink and her large sparkling feline eyes were different colors. The right one bright blue and the left yellow.  

The only thing she wore was a pink collar with 'KITTY' written on it around a graceful neck. Her body was very curvy and very sexy, with large breasts and hips, and a narrow waist. Her feet and hands ended in thicker paws with pink cat like pads and pink painted claws.  

Her feet pads were the only thing touching the ground and appeared to make the fursuit wearer stand on the balls of their feet and toes the whole time they stood. 

Her large breasts were perfectly contoured, if completely smooth under the fur. Her crotch was also smooth. Bree could see her thickly furred tail curve downward and back up again behind her. 

She appeared to be smiling at the completely stunned Bree. 

Bree set down her drink and stood up suddenly. She was so excited that Alex was doing this for her that all her worries were forgotten. 

"You... look... wow." 

The cat's furry lip moved up and down revealing sharp white teeth as she spoke in Lexi's familiar voice, but with a Southern accent "What's the matter, sugar? Cat got your tongue?" 

Bree's jaw hit the floor.  

After a moment of startlement, Bree found her own voice."You can talk?" She stared at the cat amazed.  

Bree knew Alex was getting better and better at talking like Lexi. Sometimes Lexi would bleed into his own voice, but it had never happened again after Bree had pointed it out once.  

'Alex must have practiced real hard to get the southern accent as well.' Bree's stunned mind pushed the thought out. 

"Of course darlin'." The cat's melodious voice came outside her perfect silicone, pink lips. "How else could I tell you how much I want to kiss you."  

The cat erotically sauntered forward and pressed her furry muzzle into Bree's lips, whiskers tickling Bree's cheeks, while Kitty's claws poked gently into Bree's head. 

They broke apart and Bree petted the arms of the cat, brushing the very soft fur up and smoothing it down. Her hands explored the wide hips and thin waist before coming to grasp the cat's very large defined breasts.  

"Careful darlin'. You might reveal too much." 

Confused Bree gently explored around where the nipple would be and felt something poking through the fake fur. Curious, Bree grasped the fur and removed a furry adhesive patch that blended seamlessly with the rest of the fur. It had hidden a pink nipple and small areola. Bree removed the other one and stared in wonder at the exposed silicone. 

The cat already had a fixed smile, but Bree heard Lexi's too as she asked, "Would you like to see what's hidden below?" 

Bree's shock continued as she knelt on the ground, her standard black with purple trim, wedged Chuck Taylor's beneath her. She reached out and felt the feline's flat stomach before tentatively moving down to the smooth furred groin. Her hand caught on something and she realized Kitty was wearing a furry underwear-like piece that covered her intimate parts, blending perfectly with the fur around it. 

Bree helped the thong down and stared at the silicone vaginal lips of the cat, Bree's arousal starting to drip into her panties. 

Bree covered the vagina again and looked at the padded feet. Not only was the wearer practically walking on their toes, there was a definite platform on the wide and flat paw. Bree felt Kitty's furry legs and feet and discovered a hard piece that went down into the paw and allowed the wearer to have some support for their heels. 

Bree stood up and lay against the soft fur of one breast of Kitty's, while stroking the fur of the other one. 

"So has your day gotten better?" Asked Kitty. 

"Yes it has. I feel like I have a soft animal to cuddle and keep life's problems away." Bree had finally found out how to speak again, but spoke in a dazed voice. 

"Sorry for having Alex deceive you. I threatened to claw him to make him not tell you about me." 

"This was a good deception. I needed this." Bree looked up into the mismatched eyes of the Furry face. "You are the most beautiful animal I have ever seen." 

Kitty laughed. "You might make the other animals jealous if they hear you say that." 

"I don't care. There are no other animals. Only you." Bree pressed her black and purple streaked hair into the warm cat again, sighing into its fur as she closed her eyes contentedly, imagining her and kitty cuddling in a bed together. 

"Oh there are others. Want to see their cages?" 

Bree's eyes snapped open in realization.  

Kitty led her to Alex's spare bedroom and turned on the light. 

"Did you buy a zoo?" Bree asked excitedly. 

There were four large black heavy duty cases stacked on the floor, with one even larger one underneath them, and two smaller ones plus a suitcase on top. Bree noticed that both the smaller ones and four of the bigger ones had padlocks on them. 

"Can we open them?" Bree pleaded, pointing to the locks.   

"They are all a surprise for later." Kitty responded with a devious voice. "We have plenty to do tonight." 

Bree was disappointed and a little jealous of all the suits. 'Where had Alex gotten them and how had he paid for them' Bree wondered.  

Then the door pinged. 

Kitty looked down at Bree."I'm sorry, but I couldn't possibly be seen like this. Could you go get the food? I already ordered it before I even texted you." 

"Are you sure? I think any guy would love to see these." She grasped Kitty's Furry breasts and pinched a nipple. To Bree's utter surprise, white liquid squirted out of it and into Bree's face. 

Kitty giggled. "Why did you squeeze them? That was a surprise for later."  

The door pinged again and Bree ran to get it, wiping her face with a towel she picked up along the way, a wide grin on her face. She tasted the warm, but delicious vanilla milk on her lips. 

Opening the door, Bree saw a bored looking teenager holding a bag of food.  

"Uhhh, Ramen Boy's Palace for Breana." He said completely disinterested. 

"I'm her." She snatched the food and shut the door. 

Kitty came into the living room.  

"Was he cute?" Kitty asked with a paw on her hip. 

"No, not really." 

"Good thing he didn't see me then." 

And Kitty sauntered over to kiss Bree again. 

Bree broke away. Sarcasm filled her voice as she said, "Thanks for buying me all this food. Your food is still sitting on the ground." 

Kitty smacked Bree in the arm. 

"Hey, careful with those claws." Bree had barely felt them, but pouted at the imaginary pain. 

"Sorry darlin'. I'm just not used to them quite yet. I feel pretty good with these feet though. I've been practicing with them for a while now, including all day yesterday. And I've worn them for the last hour watching for you to come home." 

"Was the Kitty stalking me?" Bree set the food on the table and pulled the Ramen out of the bag. 

"Maybe."  

"What would you have done if I didn't come over?" 

Kitty froze. "I guess I didn't think that one through... But it doesn't matter. You're here and I am loving the smile you give me every time you see me." 

Blushing slightly, Bree glanced down to Kitty's nipples. "So can I have a glass of milk to drink?" 

They both burst into a fit of giggles. Lexi must have been practicing her laugh and giggling because it was pretty good.  

Kitty finally dropped her southern accent, but not her feminine tones as she told Bree, "Maybe later. Let's eat, I'm hungry for some human food." 

Bree turned and watched as Kitty undid her collar and then unclipped something under the mask near her chin. She removed her mask to reveal a white hooded, lightly made up Lexi.  

Bree immediately attacked her in a tight hug and met Lexi's lips.  

"I've missed you." She said out of the corner of the kiss. Lexi's silicone lips felt so good. Better than Bree remembered. 

"I missed you too." 

Bree broke away. "I was expecting Alex under there. Like the first time I met Sultana." 

"Well, if you're lucky, he might barely be around this week." 

Bree smiled. She was more than happy with that, but didn't want to make him feel bad under all the layers he wore. "Can you handle that? He can come out if he needs to." 

"I believe I can. I've been practicing, and I have some new things to help me. Is that okay if he is gone?" 

Bree frowned. "If you are okay with it... But don't think you can get in the way of our friendship. He's too important to me." She really meant that. Alex was a really good friend to her, and she didn't want to lose him. 

"I wouldn't dare." 

Now Bree broke into a smile. "So does this mean you have a whole week planned."  

"Yep. Everyday after work I want you to be here if you are able. I have lots of things for us to do." Lexi set Kitty's head on the table. "Starting at 18:30 tonight so we better hurry." 

Lexi removed her Paws from her hands and Bree noticed pink nail polish on the longer press on fingernails.  

"I love your nails."  

"Thanks. It was my first time polishing them myself so they may not be perfect. I had a hard time with my toes." 

"Toe nails too, you really are going all out this time." 

"Just for you." 

Lexi sat in a chair and picked up the bowl of cat food from the floor. She set it aside.  

"I can't believe you bought a bowl." 

"I got carried away in the planning. I thought it'd be funny if you had to 'feed the cat'." 

"Aren't you going to pour your ramen in your bowl Kitty?" 

Lexi glared at her and pulled up one of her feet to her knee to take it off. 

"How good are you in those feet?" Bree asked before Lexi could remove them. 

Lexi smiled and re-stood. Bree watched her walk down the hall like a runway model, hand on hip, hips swinging wide, legs together.  

"You have been practicing. You look so much like a girl." 

Lexi turned and came running back like a Serena Doll on tiptoes, her arms held next to her breasts which shook from side to side in the small steps. 

Bree laughed. And watched as Lexi bent and touched the floor before sticking a leg out behind her, perched on one of the paws. She stood as the back of her one leg slowly drug the tops of her claws on the floor, bringing her legs together. 

"That was cool. It looks like you were born with those feet." 

Lexi sat back in the chair and found a hidden zipper in the Fur of her calf, unzipping it to remove the cat paws, revealing an encased foot the same white spandex fabric as the hood.  

"Are you wearing a zentai suit?" Bree asked. 

"Yep. I need it for today." 

Bree smirked. "So what is at 18:30?"  

"You'll have to wait and see." Lexi smiled brightly. She was obviously enjoying keeping things from Bree. 

Lexi removed the other foot and stood on her normal zentai clad feet, reaching to the back of her fur covered neck for a hidden zipper. She pulled it down behind her and pulled apart the back revealing Lexi's zentai covered back. There was also a white spandex zipper still holding the back of the suit together.  

Lexi turned her back to Bree and asked, "Can you unzip the built in corset? 

Bree obliged her and let the sides become free. "How did you even get the corset zipper on by yourself?" 

"String and a hook. I'd do it now, but you are here to help me." 

Lexi pulled out her arms and slid the suit off her breasts. The zentai wrapped and also defined each breast In a pocket like the fursuit did. Lexi slid the legs of the fursuit off and her zentai form was free of the fursuit. Her body looked perfect in the zentai. 

Inside the fursuit, Bree was able to see the boned inner latex corset as well as three silicone tubes in the crotch. The breasts cups still jiggled with some kind of bag filled with liquid around them. Most of the suit was lined with spandex so it would be comfortable to wear by itself if Lexi had the curves for it. 

"Let's just say the suit is very involved. Technically I'm not the only one that lives here who could wear it." Lexi commented. 

It took Bree a minute to realize what she meant. "So Alex could wear it without you?" 

Lexi pushed her lips together and nodded. "Sometimes that's easier on both of us." 

Bree understood how wearing Lexi and Sultana all day had worn out Alex when they had so much fun together at last year's C3 and other encounters she had with Lexi in the privacy of Alex's apartment. Bree was grateful for how much he had pushed through to be with her.  

After she had finally left his apartment on the day after C3, Bree couldn't get Alex to respond to her messages and calls as she tried to thank him again. So she used the spare key to break into his apartment, concerned for his well-being to find him asleep on his bed practically dead to the world. 

Bree commented, "That's convenient. How did you get the new suits?"  

"I'll tell you while we eat." 

Lexi reached behind her and unzipped the zipper of the zentai down her head and stopped just before going around her curvy butt. Bree noticed it could go much further and around in front of her crotch if Lexi desired.  

Lexi pulled off the hood to reveal her gorgeous wavy copper hair and gave a suggestive smile to Bree. Then she pulled down the front of the zentai suit and pulled her arms out of the fingerless gloved sleeves. 

Bree had already noticed that Lexi was wearing some kind of Body Shaper under the tight Zentai having noticed the straps, so she wasn't surprised at what she saw at first. 

The thick adjustable straps held up the nude colored shaper that went under Lexi's breasts. Her D cup breasts were contained in a strapless push up bra that defined her breasts and hid her nipples perfectly. You could barely tell she was wearing a bra under the zentai because of how smoothly the seamless bra sat on her. 

Lexi pulled the Zentai off her feet revealing her pink toe nails and that the crotchless body shaper went down to her ankles. She struck a pose to show off her shaped body to Bree. 

It took a minute for Bree to realize that Lexi had Alex's arms. Lexi was not as muscular as she normally was wearing the full suit. The breasts contained in the bra were also much more realistic than they ever had been, being detailed and spotted with freckles. Her skin was seamless from her face and neck, but Bree could see a very slight seam on Lexi's shoulders, past the straps of the body shaper. It would be very hard to notice from a distance or if liquid latex was applied and blended into Alex. There was also a red tuft of pubic hair peeking through the open crotch of the shapewear  

Bree stared at Lexi excitedly. "You got a new Mask!" 

Lexi's smile widened better than the old mask ever allowed. "Yep and Vagina-hip pants to go with it. The breasts are silicone filled, as well as the hips. Less to put on and pull off and helps cool me better. The thin waist is all mine though. I've been exercising a lot more to get it into shape while wearing a new boned corset." 

Bree approached the new Lexi to explore her, but Lexi grabbed her hands, making Bree feel a wave of frustration as Lexi said, "Later. I don't want to be late."  

___ 

After Lexi had slid on a beige thong for some modesty, they ate together as Lexi explained how Alex had met a girl six months ago who made Fursuits and Costumes. Tiffani lost interest in him on the third date after he got the courage to ask her to make a suit for him after seeing a picture of her in one and boldly told her he wanted it to be of a girl. 

She originally didn't want to have more to do with him after that, until he offered to pay her extremely well for some suits and told her he had some connections and could get her work more publicized with some people he knew at the Costume and Cosplay Castle. 

After the store's owner passed away last year, both Alex and Lexi frequently talked with the managers. Lexi contacted them through O-mail to purchase some costumes while Alex visited often and became friends with the managers. 

With a large amount of money and the connections, Tiffani promised Alex four fursuits of his choice and Alex made her promise to never speak of this to anyone. If she ever needed help again, the always kind and giving Alex promised to help her in the future if she would help him with more Fursuits if he ever felt the need, though she turned him down. 

Bree had originally been confused about why she and Lexi got to sleep together after Alex continued to mention Tiffani without really explaining why he was still seeing her, but now Bree realized that Alex had been helping her make fursuits. 

"So four suits, huh?" Bree was finished with her Ramen, Lexi having let her half finished one get to room temperature from talking a lot. 

Lexi nodded with noodles in her mouth. 

"What's in the other three cases then?" 

"It's a surprise. They are all surprises. I have claws now to defend myself so you won't get it out of me." Lexi slid on Kitty's pawed glove and made a claw hand while glaring.  

She quickly took it off to take another bite while smiling. 

Bree tried to be casual as she asked. "Did you happen to make one for me?" 

Lexi's face fell. She quickly swallowed before she apologized. "I'm so sorry Bree. I didn't know -You always seemed so happy to dress me up and play with me. I thought that was enough. They were really expensive and I didn't think you would be interested." 

Lexi looked genuinely sad and put her face in her hands. 

Bree was slightly disappointed with Lexi's revelation, but she understood that Alex wouldn't just up and buy her an expensive fursuit. She felt terribly guilty for asking and ran around the table to hug Lexi. 

"Hey, Lexi. It's okay. I didn't need one. I'm just happy to have you back. And I'd love to see you in all the different fursuits. Maybe you can be my pet cat or something. Or different pets. I didn't mean to make you feel bad." 

Lexi pulled her face from her hands, a wide smile across her deceiving face. "So you don't want the ones I had made for you?" 

Bree wanted to smack Lexi for tricking her into feeling bad for bringing it up, but she was way too excited."You made some for me?" 

"Well, I technically had one fursuit and two other things made for you, but those surprises will have to wait. Plus I have a few costumes for you." 

Bree squealed in delight hugging Lexi and kissing her on the cheek. 

"Thank you." Kiss, "Thank you." Kiss, "Thank you." Kiss, kiss, Kiss. 

"Of course. Anything for you." 

Bree finally let up and sat in Lexi's shapewear covered lap, arm's around Lexi's neck. 

"You are amazing! I can't wait to see the fursuit your girlfriend made for me." 

"She's not my girlfriend. She has no interest in me anymore. Speaking of which, what happened to that girl you were seeing?" Lexi asked. "I should thank her because this wouldn't have been possible if she hadn't dumped you. As soon as you told me she did, everything came together quite nicely." Lexi carefully reached over Bree for another bite of Ramen.  

Bree lost her excitement and growled. "She left me. For a guy!" 

"Oh, I'm sorry." 

"Well forget about her. This week is just you and me babe." Bree kissed Lexi on her soup covered lips. Bree let Lexi take a couple more bites then asked, "How are you paying for all this?" 

Lexi nearly choked as she slurped up a noodle. "Um, I have my ways. You don't know everything about me." 

"So you aren't going to tell me?" 

"Do I need to?" 

Bree pulled out the puppy dog eyes and tried to beg it out of Lexi. 

Lexi sighed. "I'll tell you about it in the car."  

She looked sad about something, her false face emoting almost emoting perfectly, and Bree decided not to press her friend as she said, "Okay. But you really didn't have to do all that for me, especially if they were expensive. I'm grateful you did though." 

Lexi tried to smile at her. "You will need to get changed while I put Kitty in her cage" 

"Oh?" Bree felt excited again as she raised an eyebrow. 

"We have a lot to take to where we are going. I laid out what you need to wear on Alex's bed." 

Bree perked up and stole the bite off the chopsticks Lexi was pulling to her mouth. Then Bree kissed Lexi and left her to finish and clean up as Bree ran to Alex's bedroom and looked on the made up bed.  

There was everything that Lexi had worn under the fursuit: Nude Shapewear, a beige Bra and thong set that matched Lexi's, and a Zentai bodysuit. However, Bree's Zentai was black instead of white. 

Bree heard Lexi yell from the kitchen. "I stole a pair of your shoes from your Apartment earlier. Hope you don't mind."  

Alex also had a spare key to Bree's apartment. The cat burglar had taken a pair of black thigh high platform boots that Bree had taken to the C3 last year. Next to them on the floor was also a long shoe box. 

As if reading Bree's thoughts, Lexi shouted to Bree again. "Oh! Could you try the ones in the box before you change? I hope I got the right size." 

Bree went to the bed and sat next to the nude shapewear. She grabbed the box and opened it, removing the tissue paper. 

Inside was a pair of light brown suede boots with a three-inch chunky heel. 

"Light brown?" Shouted Bree. She rarely wore anything but black, especially on her feet, and wasn't really fond of the boots Alex had decided to get her. 

"Ya, I-uh, kind of have a fantasy costume for you that they are needed for. Could you survive one or two non-goth costumes?" 

"Fantasy huh? I guess I could survive not goth stuff for a day. Only for you though." Understanding the boots' purpose now, Bree was excited to see what Lexi had planned. 

She pulled them out and noticed that each had a hidden zipper on the inside near the ankle and an untied criss-cross lace up on the outside of the boot that went from the ankle to the very top. 

She unzipped them and stood up. She realized that they would go up to her crotch, or even higher. Luckily the suede was flexible and could probably bunch up.  

The top had a three-inch 'V' cut out of it on the inside. "I guess for my crotch?" Bree wondered aloud.  

She looked down at her Black Corset top and skirt. 

"Nope." She said and dropped the boots. Bree quickly undressed and removed her t-shirt bra and boyshorts. She unlaced and kicked off her wedges but kept her black socks on. 

She grabbed the beige strapless Bra Lexi had provided and slipped it on. Lexi had gotten her C cup breast size right.  

Then she grabbed the bodyshaper and slid it over her legs. She had never worn anything quite so tight on her body and had trouble getting it over her hips. When she finally had it pulled into place and the straps over her shoulders, she felt down her spandex covered thighs. 

"Oooh." She moaned in pleasure. 

Having been mostly covered in latex before, Bree loved wearing tights clothing especially tights and stockings, but this was a very new and pleasurable experience to be encased in something this tight and slick. 

Bree hadn't cared if Lexi had come in to see her dressing, and she knew Alex was too shy to barge in on her, so she hadn't bothered with closing the door. Bree closed it now to look at what the shapewear did to her in the mirror on the back of the door. 

Bree had never been unhappy with her figure, except for her four-foot-eleven height. Though if you asked her, then it was five-foot even. Only Alex really knew her true height after he had measured her.  

She was pleased with how thin she was able to maintain her waist through light exercise, jogging, and yoga and no one had ever complained about her wide hips or butt. She loved her breasts which were large on her small torso, and loved to have people play with them. It had taken a lot of coaxing to get Lexi to suck on her small nipples, but now Lexi loved playing with them too. 

Bree didn't really need the shapewear, but what it did to her figure aroused her. She loved how narrow her waist and thighs looked and was impressed at how much it lifted her hips and butt. Then there was the silky feeling when she rubbed her legs together. 

Though it was odd to see her body without wearing anything black on it. 

Finally grabbing the boots, Bree pulled them on and zipped them up. She walked to the mirror and took a look at them. They were much taller than where her crotch sat and definitely bunched up. She didn't have any panties on so they rubbed her exposed slit and groin uncomfortably.  

She heard a knock at the door. 

"Bree? May I come in?" 

Bree quickly opened the door to a pleased looking Lexi. 

"You look hot in that bodysuit." 

"Thanks. I might have to wear this more often. I love how silly it feels and how it feels like it's hugging me. I don't know about the boots though. You may have gotten them too tall." 

Lexi was back in her zentai, but had the hood tucked down her neck so it looked like she had a weird turtleneck on. She also had on a tan overcoat and was wearing black heeled boots similar to the one's she had stolen from Bree that disappeared up into the bottom of Lexi's coat. Knowing how much they turned Lexi on, Bree suspected the boots were also thigh high. 

"Well if you would put them on the right way, they wouldn't..." Lexi trailed off, realizing Bree had nothing on with the crotchless Bodyshaper. 

Lexi bent down and undid the first couple of laces on the corset-like-ties of the boots. Then she folded the top three-inches down to make a boot cuff that sat below Bree's crotch.  

"That's better." Bree commented as she watched Lexi tie up the boots.  

Seeing Lexi kneeling in front of her, wearing what she was wearing and helping Bree into her boots, had an effect on Bree. And Lexi noticed. 

Lexi glanced at the clock on Alex's nightstand then dove into Bree's exposed crotch.  

After the first time in the shower a year ago, Lexi loved to eat Bree out. Bree had since shown her exactly what to do to make her orgasm quickly, and Lexi was really good at it. No other girl Bree had been with was as eager as Lexi was to help her in this way.  

Bree tried to put her hands on Lexi's head, but Lexi broke away. "Nope, I don't want help." 

Then Lexi dove in more eagerly and sucked on Bree's clit. Her tongue dove into Bree's hole as Lexi began playing with Bree's butt erotically, pulling the spandex as she roughly grasped them. 

Bree's hands made it to her breasts and pulled them from the bra so she could play with them while staring as one of the sexiest women she knew ate her out. 

It was really a shame Bree couldn't do the same to her. 

It didn't take long for Bree to gasp and orgasm under Lexi's ministrations. Lexi eagerly drank Bree's juices, and made sure none ruined Bree's new boots. 

Finally Lexi stood and Bree drank in Lexi's kiss, tasting her own orgasm. 

"Wow, thanks." Bree said as she held Lexi.  

"Of course." 

Trying to return the favor, Bree slid her hand into Lexi's coat and rubbed Lexi's mound, but Lexi pushed away. 

"Sorry, but we need to get going. How do they feel? Are they too tight?" 

Bree twisted in her new shoes and tried to not be too upset. 

As much as she loved Lexi, Bree really wished she was a proper girl. Bree couldn't treat Lexi the same way Lexi treated Bree. It made Bree feel guilty whenever she got to receive, but couldn't ever give back the same way. Lexi was doing her a favor, so Bree never complained about it. Yet she wished things were better for the friend that had given her so much. 

Lexi stared at Bree's feet as she said, "Bend your knees to make sure they aren't too tight."  

Bree lifted one leg, then the other. 

"How are the boots now?" Lexi asked. 

Bree strutted to the mirror again and twisted to see them from different angles. Admiring how they came to just below her butt cheeks. 

"They are actually quite nice. I wouldn't mind owning a pair in black." 

Lexi shook her head. "Of course you want a black pair." 

"What? I really think they'd look great." 

Smirking at her, Lexi went to her closet and removed an identical shoe box. "I guess I'll have to find another birthday present for you in the next couple of weeks." 

Bree ran over and opened the box to reveal the same boots but in a black suede. She squealed and kissed Lexi again. "You need to stop spoiling me." 

"Well these boots came in a buy one get one sale, so I got them knowing you'd like them. But they are going to cost you." 

Bree glanced at the price sticker and gasped. The price was more than Bree would ever spend on one pair of shoes and never would've gotten two of them. Guiltiness continued to eat at her. 

Lexi covered the sticker, slightly startled."No! I didn't mean that. Should have removed the dumb tag." Lexi mumbled, peeling it off. Clearing her throat Lexi corrected herself. "I meant that you can't complain about the costume I want you to wear with the tan ones. Okay?" 

"But-" 

"Okay!?" Lexi tried to look menacing.  

"Of course. I promise I won't complain. But why are you spending so much on me? This is way too much. And the fursuit and costumes? I bet you can't exactly return them." 

"Are you complaining? After I just said you couldn't complain?" Lexi glared at her. 

Bree bit her lip. She was truly excited by what Alex and Lexi had given her, though she couldn't overcome the guilt of everything Alex was buying for her when he had no need to. They weren't supposed to be a couple, and Bree was starting to worry that it was because Alex was trying to bribe Bree into liking him. 

Lexi's anger fell away as she said quietly, "I'm doing it because, well... I love you Bree. You are the best friend I have ever had. And I feel like spoiling you right now. I don't have anyone else yet. You've been a good friend to me- and Alex and I think you deserve it." 

When Lexi had said, 'I love you', Bree felt her heart ache as she thought her worst fears came true. But then Lexi had explained more and Bree realized just how much Alex cared about her. "Lexi, I don't know what to say." 

"There isn't anything you ne-" 

Bree smashed her lips against Lexi's for a moment.  

She pulled away. "Thank you, Lexi." 

She kissed her again. "And thank you, Alex." 

Bree almost never calls Lexi, Alex. And Bree had also never kissed Alex as himself. But he seemed happy with her saying it now. 

Bree hugged Lexi. "I love you both." 

Caught up in the moment. Alex responded in his normal voice. "I love you too." 

Lexi broke away from her and spoke in her voice. "We need to get going." 

Bree was smiling at her and nodded, But inside her emotions were in turmoil as she hoped the 'I Love You' was just something between really good friends. 

She removed the boots and her socks and Lexi helped her into the thong and black zentai, tucking the hood like she had her own.  

Bree put on her own boots as Lexi took her tan suede ones down the hall and into the spare room. Bree heard the unmistakable clip of scissors and Lexi brought back a black overcoat that matched Lexi's. Bree pretended not to notice Lexi throwing the tag away, but Bree added it to the guilt about all the money Alex had spent on her. 

After Lexi had fixed her makeup from messing it up in Bree's groin, she grabbed a fold up cart to carry all but one of the large cases and both the smaller cases which were left in the spare bedroom. 

Lexi had a large shoulder bag on while she pushed the cart, while Bree was pulling Alex's Suitcase and helped guide the cart. They got it all into the hall after checking the coast was clear and Lexi locked Alex's door and went down the hall. 

As they were passing Bree's door on the way to the elevator, they stopped and Lexi had Bree grab her large portable makeup kit when she got her own purse and an overnight bag to just stay at Lexi's for the night. 

Lexi explained. "I need some stuff from your make up kit and it would just be easier if you brought it all." 

Then they took the elevator to the parking garage. 

Each tenant had a parking space inside the garage and one outside, with a good sized Visitor parking near the pool Alex frequented. 

Normally Alex's common 2013 sports car was in his spot, but today it was missing. Instead was a 1967 Cherry Red, Dragon convertable.  

Bree couldn't help but to appraise the car. Bree's dad, the sports car aficionado, had rubbed off on Bree and she knew how powerful and rare the car was.  

As well as its recent price tag. 

Not able to take it anymore, Bree blew up at Alex. "This is getting ridiculous! Why are you spending so much money? What the fig are you thinking?!"  

"It was Alex's Grandpa's car." Lexi explained quietly, still pushing the cart. 

All of Bree's anger vanished in an instant. "Oh." Bree cleared her throat and tried to change the subject. "Alex is letting us borrow it? That's nice of him. I bet you will look super sexy driving it." 

Lexi froze, the cart coming to a halt. "I just realized I have never driven in heels." 

Bree gave a half laugh and continued to distract from her outburst. "Of course you haven't. We will have to train you then because I find a girl that can drive a car like this in heels very attractive. Just take them off for now. No need for us to have an accident in a 'stolen' car." 

Lexi silently agreed and opened the trunk. They were barely able to fit the largest case, another one, and the cart back there. The other two had to be put awkwardly into the back seat with the bags after the front seats had been folded forward. Lexi suggested next time, they should just put the top down to put them in and take them out. 

Bree would have wanted to ride with the top down anyway, but it was sprinkling rain and they didn't want to get wet. Their overcoats and boots were perfect for the weather though. Lexi removed her boots and tucked them in between the cases in the back. 

"This feels weird." The smooth zentai was slightly sliding across the floor a bit, but Lexi seemed capable of driving. 

She roared the engine to life and put it in reverse.  

___ 

As they left the structure and went into the rain, Bree glanced at Lexi who smiled and asked, "Could you send a message to Mihara and tell her 'sorry we left late, but we are on our way'." 

Excitement washed into Bree's emotions. Meeting Mihara meant another photoshoot, confirming her suspicions. Lexi technically didn't have a phone so Bree sent a message to her for the first time in a year and soon received a response. 

-Mihara< A common occurrence with you two. Having too much fun with the new costumes? Get your butts over here, I want to see! 

-Bree< oh we'll be there soon. Wait till you see the car 

-Mihara< I know, Lexi Omailed me and said she wanted some pictures in it. I've never done a car shoot before. Should be fun. 

Bree turned to Lexi who was concentrating on the road. "The car is going to join us?" 

"Yep. Thought it would be a fun surprise. Thanks for ruining it, Mihara. Luckily there will be plenty of other surprises tonight. Unfortunately though, we're going to have to detail the car when we get to her Studio." 

"How long till we get there?"  

"Twenty minutes. Should get there before 18:35." 

Bree tried to curb her anger and guilt as she suggested, "Should be enough time for you to explain the money you seem to use on me." 

Lexi's face fell. They sat in silence for a while until Bree broke it, wishing she hadn't brought it up. "You don't have to tell me." 

"No, I think I should. You deserve to know and I feel like I need to talk to someone about it. And Bree?" 

Lexi turned to meet her eye and then looked back to the road. "You are the only one I trust and care about to tell this too. No one else really knows. I've just been trying to figure out how to tell you and get the courage to do so." 

Bree felt a weird wave of calm come over her as she stared at Lexi, realizing this may be even more of a revelation than when she met Lexi for the first time one year ago when Alex admitted that he loved to crossdress and they went to C3 with Alex dressed as a Kigurumi woman. 

Trying to ease the tension she knew they both felt, Bree jokes, "I knew it. Alex is a mob boss." 

Lexi's smile came back, but then she quickly became serious."What I'm about to tell you, you can't tell anyone. I can't say everything, but this is personal to me and it can't get out. Ever." 

"Ah, so secret agent then. Explains the crossdressing and disguises." 

Lexi smiled again, but it was quickly gone too. Then she began. "I'm going to tell you this as both Lexi and Alex so I can get everything straight." 

Clearing her throat, Lexi jumped into her story. "When my family died, I was devastated. I had lost everyone I was close to, besides you. As the only living relative, I inherited everything my sister owned, my mom owned, and my grandparents owned. That's when I found out my grandparents had been living a lie. I don't think it was to hurt us, but because they wanted to be humble and let us make our own way for the most part. They definitely seemed to live humbly. 

Her voice slightly excited, Lexi explained, "They were actually crazy rich. I mean real estate, company owning, stock brokering, car and house collecting, secretly extremely wealthy. My mom, April, and I were always supported by them when my mom couldn't do it alone and they usually helped us with anything we needed. I don't think my mom really knew how much they really owned. I was floored and upset when I found out. It took me three months to figure out all their hidden assets. And that's when I found out how much they helped people with their money.  

"They invested in and supported major businesses that strive to help and serve others. They could have had wings of hospitals named after them or statues put up of them with all the money they donated. But they never wanted that. I feel guilty for getting mad at them for not telling us, and feel unworthy of what they have given me. They left everything to the three of us. And as the only one left..." 

Lexi and Alex paused their tale and watched the road. Bree could see tears beginning to form in their false green eyes. "I don't know what I'm doing, Bree. I've tried to be a good responsible person with the money and not blow it. I've helped a few businesses I thought were good. I have donated thousands upon thousands of dollars to charities and companies I thought needed and deserved it. I've gone to meetings and tried to help all these places I now own. 

"I just don't know if they would be proud of me for wasting my money on crossdressing. I enjoy it so much and want something for myself. And I feel guilty about that too. Am I being selfish with it?" 

Alex sobbed. "Bree, You have been so good to me and you have pushed me into more and more things I would never have done, but I am so happy I was able to do it. And do it with you. And I will always be grateful to you for that. It's not your fault that I'm this way. I want this Bree, and I owe you for being there for me. You are the only real friend I have right now and I really need you. Lexi and I need you.  

"I'm scared no one else will accept me. I'm scared I'm going to have to stop this. Tiffani didn't help things. Not wanting to date a crossdresser. I'm afraid no one else can accept this me like you did, but I know I can't have you forever. You need someone else. A real woman. And I need someone else too. I don't know when I will find her. I constantly fear that there won't  be someone who can accept me for me. And now I'm scared with the money I now have. What if the girl I meet is someone I think is the one, but she just wants the money or she just wants Lexi or just Alex. What then?" 

Alex's voice had dropped Lexi after he started to tear up. The makeup he wore on Lexi's silicone face was streaking because of it. 

Bree sat there and looked over at her friend. She was overwhelmed by all he had confessed. She didn't think he had meant to share that much, but he must have had all that bottled up and once it had started, he couldn't stop. 

Midway through the tears he had pulled off to the side of the road and parked the car because it was too difficult to see through them. 

Bree sat thinking for a while as the rain drizzled down the window of the still turned on car. 

She had no idea she meant that much to him. Bree knew he really cared about her, and earlier he admitted he loved her, but that just seemed like something he was just saying. It turned out that he really needed her and really loved her as a friend. After he admitted that she was his best friend, she couldn't help but realize he was hers too. She had a couple of friends, probably way more than he did as he never hung out with anyone but her. And no one meant as much to Bree as he did. She really cared about him. She really loved him. 

Undoing her seat belt, Bree moved over the armrest to sit uncomfortably in his lap with the steering wheel in her back. She grabbed him around the neck and held him, breathing deeply. 

She looked through Lexi's artificial green eyes and into Alex until he calmed down. That's when she told him with all her heart, "You are amazing Alex." 

He cleared his throat, wiped his eyes and tried to use Lexi's voice "Sorry -" 

Bree put a finger on Lexi's pink lips to stop Alex from talking.  

"No, I'm talking to my friend right now. Lexi can wait." She started again. "You are amazing Alex. I know you think you are unworthy, but I disagree. You are the kindest person I have ever known. You are so helpful to everyone you meet. Even though you were deceiving me earlier, I had no doubt you were helping someone take care of some dumb cat because that's who you are.  

"You're worried about how your Grandparents would see you and how you spend their money, but they were proud of you well before they died. They couldn't stop talking about you to me when they met me for your birthday last year. I kinda wonder if they were trying to set us up because they knew you liked me, but that isn't the point. They loved you.  

"You haven't gone crazy and blown their money. I don't see girls on your arms or a fancy house or a plane or whatever the rich spend money on. You still live in an apartment and drive that sports car you've had since before I knew you. This car doesn't count because it's something your grandfather already owned." 

She squeezed him tighter in her hug. "You said he collected cars, that was his hobby. Hobbies are necessary to live life. Your hobby of crossdressing is definitely not something everyone would understand, but it is your hobby and it makes you happy. There is absolutely nothing wrong with it. That is what's important about it, it makes you happy. You already care for others so much, you need to care for yourself too. If this is what gives you joy, what other people think doesn't matter. And I really enjoy sharing it with you. 

"I have no doubt there is a girl out there who would accept you for you. All of you. Lexi included. You just need to be patient while you find her. And until you do or until you don't need me anymore, I will be there for you, like you are there for me. No matter what. With whatever you need. Even sexual release.  

"Alex. You are my hobby and I wouldn't have it any other way. I don't care how rich you are or how much you can spend on me. I don't need or want that. I just want my friend Alex. And if he wants to be Lexi, then I guess I can have Lexi too. I'm here for you Alex. I love you." 

She leaned forward and kissed him through Lexi's lips. After a time she pulled away. And realized she had just kissed Alex for the second time that night while thinking it was Alex. 

Whether it was to reassure herself, or him she wasn't sure as she stated, "Just to be clear Lexi, that was for Alex." 

Alex smiled.  

"This one is for Lexi." And this time she really kissed Lexi passionately. 

Then she moved back to her seat. "Are you okay?" 

Alex took a deep breath. "I think so."  

"Do you want to cancel tonight?" 

Lexi came back after Alex cleared his throat. "No, I think I need this." 

Lexi sniffed and put the car in gear and they continued on their way. 

Bree let Lexi drive for a while before asking, "So tell me, why do you still live in an apartment? Didn't your grandparents leave you a house? 

"Technically I- Alex owns quite a few houses across the country and some in other countries. His Grandparents leased out most of them and used the others for vacation spots. I don't really want to live in a big empty house by myself. I also still own the house I grew up in, but rent that one too." 

After mentioning that he now owned multiple houses, Bree felt her curiosity grow as to just how rich he was, but she tried to not to care. 

Instead she asked, "You could always find a better apartment. Maybe a penthouse or something with lots of closet space for Lexi. She really needs it." 

"I definitely do. Alex's spare bedroom is getting messy. But I don't want to leave where I'm at." 

"Why?" 

Lexi looked embarrassed at her for a second before turning back to the road. 

Bree was shocked as she came to a realization. "You are staying there because of me?" 

"Yes." Lexi said quietly. "I didn't want to leave you there alone. I love living so close to you so we can hang out whenever you feel up to it." 

Bree blushed. She had no idea what to say to that. 

Lexi continued. "Plus I don't have to pay rent." 

Bree's head snapped towards Lexi. "You aren't paying rent? How?" 

"Alex's Grandparents owned the building." 

Bree freaked out at Lexi. "You own where we live?!" 

"Yes." 

Trying to make Alex happy again, Bree jokes, "Can we discuss how much I'm paying for rent?" 

Lexi finally chuckled, wiping away the last of the tears she probably couldn't feel on her cheeks. "I'll see what I can do." 

Bree smiled. "Well, if it helps, I don't mind sleeping with you for a better deal." 

Lexi and Bree glanced at each other then burst out laughing together. 

____ 

Alex felt much better about the stress he had been feeling for the past several months after talking to Bree about it and laughing with her as he continued to drive his grandfather's car. He was grateful for Bree's support and friendship to both him and Lexi. Bree also seemed more cheerful after going on a rant about her dumb boss.  

Alex was concerned about how Bree got mad at him for spending too much money on her, but Alex had no intention of stopping. He was really worried about losing his friend.  

One day, he knew that their sexual fun would end, but that didn't mean that they couldn't still be friends. He just really wanted to make her happy and so far she seemed very happy with what he had given her. 

Lexi had Bree message Mihara to explain why they were going to be even later. Not having a phone, Lexi wasn't sure she wanted to give out Alex's number for things that had to do with her. 

Based on the smirk Lexi had glanced, Bree was up to something in her messages to Mihara. It was nice to see Bree happy enough to scheme, but that did make Lexi a little worried at what Bree had done. 

She pulled the car into a warehouse district near the Duwamish waterway, and in front of a garage door attached to a seemingly empty building with only one car outside. 

The door opened and Lexi's Asian-American friend Mihara stood in the lit open area of a painted concrete floor warehouse. She beckoned them in and closed the door behind the wet car. 

Lexi opened the car door and put on her boots again, apologizing to the Photographer. "I'm so sorry about the floor. I'll be happy to mop it up for you." 

The girl in mecha print leggings and a black thin hoodie called back, "Oh it's no big deal. You should have seen this place when I got it. Leaves and Mud everywhere, but it's been fun here." 

Lexi stepped out of the car as Bree went and hugged Mihara, telling her, "It's so good to see you again. How are you?" 

Mihara smiled. "I'm good now that Kazama is gone. I dumped that Kaiju dropping after I caught him with one of my clients around Christmas time. I've just been trying to focus on my work." 

Bree gave her a sad smile. "Well I'm sorry that he cheated on you. But hey this place looks amazing." 

The smaller warehouse was mostly open with a drywalled area to the side of it that had a hallway in the middle. A couple of different photoshoot areas were set up, as well as a kitchen, dining, and living area near the wall. 

"This is an awesome place Mihara." Lexi agreed. "Do you live here?" 

Lexi may have seemed too interested in it because Bree asked, "Why Lexi? Are you looking to move?" 

Bree's face fell as Lexi looked sadly at her.  

Mihara didn't notice the exchange. "It's really nice. I have a forest in the back that I'd love to do a photoshoot in, though I haven't quite had the chance yet..." Mihara trailed off.  

Noticing how sad Mihara looked, Lexi decided to change the subject. "Well. Shall we get our stuff unloaded? You mentioned in your O-mail that you had a dressing room." 

Mihara perked up. "Two actually. Bree also mentioned you needed to freshen up when you got here. Sorry you aren't feeling well. If there's anything you need, let me know. I have plenty of stuff." 

Lexi wasn't sure what Mihara meant by that, but Bree was ready to help Lexi take the top down, so Lexi helped her and they removed the stuff from the backseat. 

The three of them unloaded the car and used the cart to push everything through the warehouse. 

Out of curiosity, Lexi asked, "Who owns the Warehouse?" 

"Some real estate company called O'Murphy Holdings. They own every warehouse in this area. I'm basically renting it and was lucky they let me live here." 

Alex tried to keep his face neutral. 

"Where'd you get the cool car?" Mihara asked. 

Bree glanced back at Lexi who responded, "I have a really good friend that has a decent collection and let me borrow it." 

"Dang, I wish I had a cool friend that was like that. So are you and Bree still a couple?" 

Lexi noticed Bree's face blush so Lexi took this one too. "It's complicated. We are mostly just really good friends." 

Bree added, "Friends with Benefits." Before smiling and pecking Lexi on the lips. 

Lexi saw Mihara blushing as she quickly turned away and led them to the first door down the hallway. 

"Here you are." Mihara said, turning on the light. 

The room was about the size of a bedroom with a visible bathroom on the one end through a door. The room was furnished with a rug, couch, coffee table, bench, dual vanity, and a couple of clothing racks with empty hangers. Everything looked second hand and mismatched, but it was all clean. A floor to ceiling mirror was on one wall, that went from one corner to the door. 

Bree turned to Mihara. "Could you give us a minute?" 

"Of course. I'll be in my bedroom, gotta grab something." Mihara shut the door behind her and they heard her footsteps echo down the concrete hall. 

Turning to Lexi, Bree told him, "Sorry for making you emotional when I suggested you were looking for someplace to move to." Bree couldn't contain a strange smile, but quickly became serious when Lexi stared at her suspiciously. "Lexi. I don't know what I would do without you. I really appreciate you living close to me." 

Lexi gave her a sad smile. "I don't know what I would do without you either. You have been such a good friend to me after my family died." 

Bree grabbed a make-up wipe and started cleaning Lexi's face. "You really don't need to stay near me. You can do whatever -" 

"Bree. I want to. You are my best friend and I want to be close to you. Like I said before. I don't want to be alone in some empty house. Is it wrong to want to be near your friends?" 

"Of course not, Alex. It's just, what if I'm holding you back?" 

"Don't ever think like that. I think you push me forward. You make me a better person. Both me and Alex. Why would I want to give that up? Give up the chance to spend as much time as you want together." 

Bree stared into Lexi's eyes. "Thanks. Thank you for wanting to be near me. You have no idea how much I appreciate you wanting to stay." 

"You're welcome, Bree." 

Bree came over and hugged Lexi. "I am happy to be your friend. And still sorry about your family. I know how much you miss your mom and your..." 

Trailing off, Bree pushed away looking at Lexi strangely. "Alex... your mom went back to her maiden name after John was gone from your lives." She avoided calling John Alex's 'dad'. She continued putting the pieces together. "Her last name was Murphy." 

Lexi swallowed, realizing how busted she was. 

"And you said your grandparents were into real estate-Wait! O'Murphy park, Where we walk around and hang out? O'Murphy holdings! You own this building! And my boss mentioned that O'Murphy holdings owned the building I work at!" 

Lexi gave up trying to be sneaky and smiled devilishly. "For now! I'm half tempted to kick out the Salon for the way he treated you today-" 

Both of them jumped as the door to the dressing room burst open. 

"You own my building!?" Mihara shouted at Lexi. 

"Hey what happened to Privacy?" Lexi accused the eavesdropper.  

Suddenly embarrassed, Mihara informed them, "I put a hidden microphone in here to catch Kazama cheating on me. Then I kept it to see what clients thought about me behind my back. Who's Alex?" 

Alex's world came crashing down around him as he remembered how Bree had called him by his real name a few times. 

Bree's face turned white as she quickly exchanged a glance with Lexi. 

Lexi tried to think quickly as she flustered out, "I am. Lexi Johnson. Alexandra Johnson. I have quite the inheritance from my deceased Grandparents. I knew I owned some warehouses in the area, I just didn't expect it to be one you lived in. What a coincidence, huh?" 

Mihara looked at her suspiciously. "Alexander Johnson just donated quite a bit of Money to sponsor the Costume and Cosplay Castle. I know the managers." 

She suddenly came very close to Lexi and studied her makeup face before gasping. 

"Holy Kaiju! That's a mask! You are wearing a mask! You're a guy!"

Dun, dun, dun. 

Xarek here. Thanks for reading part one of my sequel to The Warrior Queen.  

If you liked it please Star it. I am just barely getting into writing and would love to know what you think of it. I have a pretty large plan of stories I could make and will keep it up as long as I feel up to it and feel people are enjoying it.
