Before I knew it Miss had ordered me, as Josephine, to join the other girls on the tennis courts. To get there we had to walk past the boys warming up for their athletics. They had an idea of what to expect. The nastier girls made sure I had to walk right by them and then tripped me up, making me flash my knickers at them, to a chorus of jeers.
"Just ignore them Josephine!" called Miss Stone, thus ensuring that they all knew what I was being called. I began to feel very miserable.
The lesson began, split up into fours I was with Donna, Jenny and Marion. They were three of the nicer girls and they weren't horrid to me. I actually began to enjoy the lesson. The tennis was gentle, so we were able to have a bit of a chat and enjoy the weather. The girls even warned me that, when I picked the tennis balls up I should bend at the knee and not at the waist to avoid flashing my knickers! I found my new look rather fetching. My legs didn't look skinny as they usually did and my thin waist looked appropriate. To my surprise I even found the skirt fun to wear! I was almost disappointed when Miss said the lesson was over and I had to walk past the waiting boys back to the changing room.
Instinctively I headed for the boys changing rooms, but Miss redirected me.
"You really must learn your way around!" she said. "I've spoken to Mr. Graham and he says he can't find any of your clothes in the boy's room so he has asked me to kit you out for the rest of the day. Won't that be nice?" She smiled but not in a nasty way.
Confused I waited by her office. She emerged with a bundle of clothes and a pair of shoes. "Change into these then bring your PE kit back here."
Obediently I made my way back into the girls changing room. My tennis partners were just leaving. They asked what I was doing and I explained. They offered to help me get ready.
Soon I was wearing the summer uniform, consisting of a maroon cardigan over a summer dress in a maroon gingham pattern. The dress was a bit tight, hugging my body rather more than it did the others and it was also a bit short. The cardigan fitted fine. On my feet, over the white ankle socks I had on a pair of black, sensible, but undeniably feminine shoes complete with a small heel!
