Junior prom. Not as big a deal as senior prom, but still pretty big. Especially for Cassie Clayton. She'd gotten a gig with the school to provide some live music in addition to a DJ, a suggestion that someone had made on account of Cassie and her best friend Ellie being a bit of a musical sensation locally and with a sizable online following. There had been a few small interviews on local television and radio, a few local performances. She and Ellie were hoping for a big break soon.

It had been the summer after eighth grade that both Cassie and her best friend Ellie had moved to this town for work-related reasons with their families, the same summer they had decided to start a band, and the same summer Cassie had begun her transition both medically and socially. For about three years now they had been building their career as Cassie had blossomed into womanhood. And while her anatomy still disagreed, there was little doubt that medical science had been turning the tide of the war between her mind and her genes.

She had everything packed and ready, heading over to Ellie's house to get ready. While Ellie was going with her boyfriend, Cassie was going solo, and more because of the paying gig than anything. She wasn't looking forward to it, though. Not really. Because she'd have to see Ellie dancing with her boyfriend all night. Cassie had no one. Very few people knew the truth about her, a few friends and the school administration, mostly. But her fear of rejection had Cassie keeping most people at a distance. But mostly she was jealous. Jealous that she wasn't the one dating Ellie. The two had grown up together as BFFs, even before Cassie had realized who and what she was.

She barely spared time to knock on the door to Ellie's house before opening it and heading in.
 
Junior prom and Ellie Spencer had spent months looking at dresses with both her mum and her best friend Cassie before settling on a black dress with an intricate lace bodice and fluffy short skirt. She remember trying it on and realising she looked absolutely stunning in it, and Cassie had agreed with an almost flushed expression on her face. The dress had been hanging on the outside of her closet door for a week and she had tried it on a few times. Junior prom might perhaps not be quite as special as Senior prom but to Ellie it was special. It was the first time she wasn't going alone, or rather not going there with Cassie as friends. She had an actual date this year. His name was Keith and whether she actually loved him or not was open for debate but she really really Really liked him. He had taken her on a few movie and burgers, home by eleven dates and there had been some heavy make out and over the clothes groping between them on a few occasions but nothing beyond that. She wasn't quite as eager to lose her V-card as some of the other girls at school seemed to be.

She was just getting out of the shower when she heard Cassie and her mum downstairs exchanging a few words and with just a towel around her she called down to ask her bff to bring them up a couple of sodas before going into her room to start putting on her make up. She tossed the towel in the hamper in her closet and put on the strapless bra and panties set she had bought specifically for the occasion and began blow drying her long red hair while brushing through it. at the same time she was going over the short list of songs Cassie was going to perform to pre-recorded music towards the end of the night and while she herself wouldn't be joining her friend and bandmate on stage she was perhaps as nervous as Cassie was about it.

Anyone entering her room at that moment would see her from behind bent forward in front her full body mirror, her face covered by her still damp hair.

The fact that Ellie wasn't joining her onstage was a disappointment even bigger than not going together for Cassie. It wasn't the same with tracks backing her up, and that also kinda defeated the purpose of "live" music. She had tried to get Ellie to agree at least do a couple of songs, but to no avail.

As she headed up to Ellie's room, Cassie paused and smiled at the sight. "Hey, girl." She said with a chuckle. "How's it going?"
 
"Hey you," Ellie said as she straightened herself up and turned around with a big smile on her face.
"I just got out of the shower but there should still be hot water left for you."
She then bent over again and continued to dry and brush her hair unaware that she might be teasing her friend with a perfect view of her firm round ass in panties that barely covered any of it.
 
Cassie nodded, grateful for the chance to get away from staring at her best friend. Cassie had a secret, and not just the one about her identity. She was in love with Ellie. Had been for years. But saying anything about it had been ... not something she had done.

As she headed for the bathroom, she smirked. "You know, if you're planning to get laid, why bother with underthings, especially when they barely count as clothing?" She teased.
 
"Planning to ... I wouldn't go that far. Hoping perhaps but you might be right," Ellie said.
"Maybe I should go without the bra as well then?" she teased back and happy with the state of her hair she ran the brush through it a few more times standing up straight before sitting down to start her make up.

"To be honest I'm not sure Keith is the one y'know. I mean I do like him, a lot, but ..." she said when Cassie returned from the shower some time later, shrugged and looked up at her friend, her best friend forever.
Cassie was just wearing a towel and Ellie smiled. Cassie did have a stunning body, the oestrogen had done her quite the favour in re-shaping her body.
 
Cassie's figure was due in part to the fact that her parents had allowed her to be on puberty blockers until she was certain she wanted to transition, so none of the normal male puberty traits had been allowed to develop. As a result, the hormones had managed to do quite a good job. Her breasts were respectable C-cups, and she had the right curves. You wouldn't know she was born male unless she was naked. And even then, at school at least, she had managed to preserve her secret through careful use of prosthetics and tucking. Ellie was the only one of the students who knew. The faculty did, as well, but at Cassie and her parents' request, it was kept from the student body.

Hearing Ellie say that she wasn't sure about the boyfriend gave Cassie a flutter of hope. She shrugged, turning around before dropping the towel and pulling out her own attire, a skirt and top in fairly cotton-candy pastels, the kind of glam one might expect of a pop star. Sure, the duo wasn't very big yet, barely more than a regular fixture at various local music scenes, but there were hopes they might be getting a big break soon.

"So, you just want to fuck a guy you don't even love?" She asked as she started changing. "You want your first time to be with some random asshole, basically?"
 
Ellie looked up from the mirror where she was putting on a rather elaborate multi-shaded eyeshadow.
"Hey. I didn't say that," she said and looked curiously at Cassie.
There was something in her best friend's tone that sounded jealous, almost a bit hurt.
"I do like Keith, like ... a lot. And we have been going out for like three months now."
She tilted her head and watched as Cassie dropped the towel and began to dress herself.

Her friend did have a point though. Lately Ellie had begun to feel an itch that simply masturbating wouldn't scratch, not even using the dildo she had secretly purchased using her mum's credit card. She felt ready to lose her virginity. There was no doubt in her mind about that but was she rushing it just because. Was she as Cassie so bluntly put it ready to fuck a guy she didn't even love, liked, a lot was not the same as loved. Was she ready to give her virginity to some guy just because he had asked her to junior prom? Would that make her a slut, a slut virgin? She giggled at the thought.

"You're just jealous," she said and poked her friend lightly just above her belly button.
 
Cassie shrugged, chuckling. "I'm jealous that you think maybe getting dicked is worth leaving me without my instrumental goddess onstage. It's not really "live" music without a live person playing the instruments, after all." She said lightly, finishing getting dressed and starting her own makeup. "So, the channel's starting to get some attention. Hoping that we'll get some bigwig talent scout to find us. And then we'll be heading for the top. We'll be the next big thing on the music scene."
 
Ellie returned to her make up and nodded. She could of course understand that Cassie was disappointed in her for choosing a prom date over their duo. It had not been an easy decision to make and in a way she was disappointed in herself for having made it. It would of course have distracted her from her date to do sound checks, last minute rehearsals and their usual ritual of holding each others hands and pressing their foreheads together going over the set list, repeating lyrics to each other and then whisper: "Funhouse Sweethearts Forever," in perfect sync. That was the name they used when performing, Funhouse Sweethearts. Then again, romances come and romances go, and as she had just admitted, she didn't really love him, she just liked him a lot. And yet she was hoping to lose her virginity to him and that was probably the main reason why Cassie would be doing a solo performance.
"Speaking of ..." she said.
"We really should make that fake interview video we've talked about where we take turns asking each other silly questions."
It was an idea that had emerged one night after a show where they had pretended to be teen superstars and being asked all kinds of silly questions, like, what's your favourite colour, do you have any pets (Ellie had loved the way Cassie had answered that one by pointing at her and with a giggles saying: Only this one. She's the best cuddle toy a girl could have). They had also asked about boyfriends, favourite food and anything that popped into their mind.
 
Cassie chuckled at the mention of the interview video. "Yeah, we really should." She agreed with a nod. "It might be best to update our bios like that. We can work on that later."

As they finished their makeup, Cassie glanced at Ellie. "You look fantastic, babe." She said with a smile.
 
"So do you. If the boys don't drool over you ..."
Ellie left the sentence unfinished and nudged he friend with the elbow.
"I just know you will kill tonight. The kids at school won't know what hit them."

Some minutes later they were both downstairs being photographed by Ellie's mum side by side in various poses on of which was Ellie giving Cassie a hug from behind with her arms wrapped around the waist and her head leaning on Cassie's shoulder, cheek against cheek.
"You both look gorgeous," Mrs Spencer said and gave them both a kiss on the cheek for good luck.
Then the doorbell rang. It was Keith coming to pick them up.

Ellie went to open the door and greeted her prom date with a not entirely chaste kiss.
 
Cassie managed not to flinch as Ellie mentioned the boys drooling over her. The idea was less than appealing; Cassie wasn't really attracted to males. Not that Ellie knew that. The one secret she had from Ellie was her attraction to her because she was a lesbian.

The photo session was fun and Cassie enjoyed the proximity to Ellie. And then Keith showed up and Cassie was forced to watch the rather enthusiastic kissing enviously. "Get a room, you two." she muttered as she pushed past them to the car, loading up her equipment with a huff.
 
"Jealous much," Ellie said playfully as she helped Cassie with some of the equipment, completely unaware of how right she was and the reason for Cassie's jealousy..
She then got into the passenger seat of Keith's dad's car while Cassie got into the back seat.

When they got to the school gym they were early and the prom-committee were still putting the finishing touches to the decorations and putting out the refreshments. Ellie helped Cassie set up the mixer and the lap top and connecting all the cables after having spent a few moments with her lips pressed to Keith's. As she looked over the settings and did a sound check Cassie she couldn't help but think about what her friend had said earlier about just giving her virginity to the first random guy to make her an offer. It was true that it made her all tingly when she kissed Keith and even more so when he groped her and she him but wasn't there supposed to be more, butterflies in her belly, stars fluttering in front of her eyes?

When she was done she nodded at Cassie wondered if it would be inappropriate to still go through their little per-show ritual even though it would be just Cassie on stage?
 
At least Ellie had helped her set up the gear, even if it meant occasionally watching the girl take a break to snog her boyfriend. It was difficult to watch and Cassie was wondering what was keeping her from saying anything to her best friend and crush about her feelings. A thought occurred, and she quickly pulled up a song on her phone and headed over to the faculty members standing nearby to get their approval on if she could use the song as well.

It may have been petty, but Cassie excused herself to the restroom before things started to eat up time, deliberately avoiding Ellie and dodging their pre-show ritual. It didn't feel right either way, to do it when Ellie wouldn't be on stage, or to not do it at all, but at least not doing it dodged the pain of knowing Ellie wasn't going to be up there with her.
 
The prom was officially opened at 8pm and first there was another band from school playing, not even close to as good as Funhouse Sweethearts of course and they only did covers of the latest hit singles with a few old songs thrown in for good measure. They had offered to back Cassie when it was made public that she would be alone on stage but they weren't even close to good enough to act as a substitute.

Ellie danced with Keith but her mind was more on Cassie's performance than on her date. She was starting to regret having declined to be up there with her best friends since before kindergarten. She even thought about asking the guitar player of the band playing if she could borrow his equipment, mute the guitar tracks on the backing tracks for Cassie's performance and join her. In the end she decided not to. She wasn't sure how Cassie would react to it. Ellie had made her choice and had to live with it.

Some time just before 10 pm the band finished their set with an abysmal rendering of Pink's Cover Me in Sunshine and the head of the prom committee announced the special performance by the school's rising star Cassie Clayton. Ellie turned to face the stage and began to clap, cheer and whistle as encouragement and for a moment she completely forgot about Keith.
 
Cassie's set was mostly original stuff she and Ellie had done together, with a few covers. She hated that this was basically karaoke, but she would deal with it. She gave her all into the performance, singing like an angel. Finally, with the end of the night coming up, it was time for her surprise.

"This last song is for someone special to me. They're a fan of Debbie Harry, so for them, here's 'Maybe For Sure'. They know who they are. Hope you love it, darling." She said before launching into the song.
 
Cassie had been booked to play for about forty five minutes which more or less covered all the songs the two had on their repertoire. There was really only one song missing, the still untested and not quite finished coming out song they had been working on for quite some time now. Ellie danced and sang along while Keith stood behind her with his arms around her waist trying to keep his moves in time with her moves.

Cassie had opened with their version of Be My Baby and now as she was doing the final chorus of Down On Me Ellie started to applaud wildly and calling out for an encore even if she knew there was none planned but then to her surprise Cassie announced one more song dedicating it to a Debbie Harry fan who was special to her. It had to be her. Debbie Harry was like one of her three all time favourite singers. She owned every album by Blondie and by Debbie solo. The fact that there was perhaps a hidden message in Cassie's choice of song didn't dawn on her until Cassie did the last spoken word part that ended with "I love you" and even then it didn't quite sink in. That would take a while because as Cassie bowed and thanked the crowd for being a great audience she was distracted by Keith who seemed quite eager to continue their dancing somewhere less public.
"Just a second," Ellie said and rushed to the stage to tell Cassie she had been brilliant and to wait for her outside.
"I just have to talk to Keith first and then we'll call mum to come pick us up. Ok. Loved your encore."

Fully intent on telling Keith she wasn't into him enough to go any further than they already had Ellie followed her date outside and across the school's backyard to the bike shed where she was just about to tell him that the date was over and that it was perhaps best for both of them if they just called in quits when he grabbed her ass and pushed her up against the back wall of the shed. She tried to remove his hand but he was insistent and when she told him she didn't want to he grabbed her left breast and pulled down the front of the dress.
"What the fuck," he said and groped her through her strapless bra.
"You fucking tease," he added and groped her left breast so hard it hurt.
"STOP IT," Ellie cried out unsure if anyone would hear her.

It had taken her a few minutes to extricate herself from the crowd, and as Cassie headed out to hunt for Ellie, she noticed some activity over by the bike shed and began heading that way to investigate.

The scream of "STOP IT," obviously in Ellie's voice, made Cassie's blood run cold, and she bolted towards it, yelling back at another student to get a teacher, pausing only to pick up a sizeable rock.

Nearing the two, Cassie saw Keith very clearly molesting Ellie, and the rage in her bubbled up viciously. Throwing the rock was too risky, so she forced herself to slow down, sneak up behind Keith, and then, in one vicious kick to the groin, bring him down to his knees with a cry of pain.

"No means no, asshole." She said coldly before she kicked him in the crotch again for good measure. "Stay down, fuckwad, or I give you brain damage." She threatened, hefting the rock to make her point. "Ellie, a teacher should be on the way. Call the cops."
 
Ellie had never been happier to see Cassie than she was when her friend snuck up on Keith from behind and incapacitated him with one swift kick to the groin from behind none the less. He dropped like a bag of sand and held his crotch, tears starting to well up in his eyes from the pain.
"Fuck. I thought I was done for," Ellie said and threw herself at Cassie hugging her tightly.
Then she nodded and stepped away, just a few steps and as she dialled the phone she ran her fingers softly over Cassie's cheek.

Moments later they were anything but alone. The girls' PE teacher Ms Harrison had shown up as she was the one responsible for the junior prom and with her a stream of kids from school started to gather as well wondering what was going on.
"Did he hurt you, Ms Harrison asked Ellie who shook her head no just as the was put through to the local police.

They said they'd send a patrol car as soon as one was available but also informed her that since no one was seriously hurt and there was no longer any immediate danger of anyone getting hurt it might be a while. Perhaps it was better if she came down to the station in the morning and filed a report. She sighed and agreed.
"I wouldn't say no one is in any immediate danger though," she added after having ended the call and looked over at Cassie still standing over Keith with the rock in her hand.
 
The hug was welcome, and Cassie was glad she'd been there for Ellie in time. As the crowd surrounded them, Cassie simply mentioned that the bastard hadn't been taking no for an answer. As Ellie hung up reluctantly, she smirked. "This rock is awfully heavy. Shame if it slipped out of my hand and busted his face ... or his dick ..." she mused loudly, turning her hand so the rock was hanging from her hand over Keith's head, then crotch.

Ms. Harrison shook her head. "That's enough, Cassie. We'll take it from here. I'm sure we can work out some disciplinary action since he tried this on school grounds."

Cassie nodded reluctantly, setting the rock down and walking over to pull Ellie close. "Hey, babe. Let's get out of here." She said with a smile. "Stick with me while I pack my gear?"
 
This wasn't the first time Cassie had stuck of for Ellie but before it had been much more innocent. This time it could have ended so bad if she hadn't shown up. On their way back to the school gym Ellie called her mum to come pick them up but she said nothing about what had happened and when her mum asked why Keith wasn't taking her home she rolled her eyes and simply said: "Boys," in a very sarcastic tone.

As soon as they were alone Ellie snuggled up into Cassie's arms and rested her head on her shoulder.
"My saviour," she said and then without even realising it she placed a soft kiss on Cassie's neck.
"That song was for me right," she whispered.
"And the message was that I'm a complete idiot for not having realised that you love me. Like not just as a friend but ..."
Ellie stopped talking and looked up at Cassie, their eyes meeting momentarily before she pressed her lips to Cassie's"
"I'm an even bigger idiot for not realising that I love you the same way until now."
 
As Ellie kissed her neck and asked about the song, Cassie nodded. "No, the message was, was I going to have to call you out by name onstage in front of everyone before you realized that I did?" She said, and then Ellie was kissing her and she was kissing Ellie back.

"Hey, you're not a complete idiot, or you'd be excusing this as emotions after that bastard just tried to rape you." She said with a solemn nod. "I hope I broke something of his."
 
Ellie nodded. It was true that she was emotional after what had just happened and that Cassie made her feel safe again but it was more than that. It was a realisation that had probably been building up since that morning when Cassie made her remark about Ellie throwing away her virginity to the first asshole who wanted it. She had been almost stubbornly intent on giving it to Keith that night. She had even hinted at it to him a few days before but little by little as the day progressed she had started having second thoughts and then once she had decided he was not the one he had simply decided to take it whether she wanted to or not and then Cassie had come charging in to save her from her own carelessness and naivety.

This however, snuggled up against Cassie, this was much much more. It was an emotion she had hidden away deep inside for fear that Cassie wouldn't feel the same way, a feeling of intimacy she had denied repeatedly to herself, even as they had spooned each other during their weekly sleepovers, or when they had cuddled up side by side to watch a movie, or a series. It was like Cassie said. She had been blind to the way Cassie felt and because of that denied how she felt towards Cassie. Tonight had been a wake up call.

"Hopefully his ego," she said and giggled and then more seriously.
"And I hope you damaged his balls too."
She kissed Cassie again and then looked into her eyes with a whole new level of affection and intimacy only to be interrupted by her phone going off.
"Mum," she said as she looked at it and grabbed the mixer and the lap top.
"She's waiting outside in the parking lot."
 
Cassie chuckled. "I'm pretty sure I bruised them, at least; these shoes may have been custom-made with steel toes. Dad's idea." She said with a nod. "Hopefully Keith'll think twice next time he thinks no means yes." She added.

It was nice, kissing Ellie again, and then they were interrupted by the phone, and Cassie sighed. "I, uh, look, we probably should tell her what happened there. With, uh, the handsy bastard. And, maybe, well, us?" She said as she headed towards the door.

"I mean, well, is there an us?"
