and then started on his eyes. A thick stroke of eyeliner and gobs of mascara made his eyes look big and round. She dusted his lids lightly with shimmering white shadow and lightly powdered his nose with a powder puff. Using a small tweezer she removed a few stray hairs from his near perfect eyebrows and then finished his face off with a generous application of the strawberry red lipstick that Tina had bought him sometime ago. Meanwhile Cindy was almost done with his hair. All of this attention brought back memories of how it had been first time the two of them had dressed him · completely. He felt so different about it now! He was enjoying himself so much he didn't have time to wonder about his manhood!

When Cindy was finished he calmly walked over to the mirrors. He was totally stunned with himself! Both of them had done an exceptional job and he was more ravishing than ever! He was hypnotized by the sensitive look of his eyes! His glossy, wet, deliciously red lips just begged to be kissed! His hair was a smooth masterpiece, sweeping across his forehead just above his perfectly shaped eyebrows. The added padding filled the bustline of the dress to its limit and gave him a dynamite figure! The women paid him compliment after compliment as they admired their prize.

Tina arrived promptly at seven-thirty and her jaw dropped when he walked into the room. "My god! You're more beautiful than ever!" she cried. Slowly she circled the boy and took in every detail of his appearance. Terry beamed with pride as she examined him. Then she took his arm and together they walked out to the car.

As they walked across the parking lot to dance hall whistles and wolf calls exploded around them. When Terry stopped to check his coat the hat-check girl stared shamelessly at his beauty. Inside the hall a murmur went through the crowd as they entered. The word was quickly passed along and soon every male head in the place was straining for a look at the newcomers.

Across the room a tall body detached itself from a chair and walked directly toward them. Terry immediately recognized Jed and called out to him. "Hello, Jed. How have you been?" "Just fine thanks. Where the heck have you been lately? I came out to see you the day you ran away from me on the road but Mrs. Borden said you were too tired to come out. And you haven't been coming to the dance either," he stated. Tina looked over at Terry. She had not heard about the incident on the road and was dying to know what had happened. But Terry offered no explanation to her. "I've been busy but I am sure glad to see you again," he responded demurely. "I can't believe it! You're even prettier than I remembered. I'd sure like to dance with you tonight!" he said with a boyish grin on his face. "Jed, I'd love to spend the evening with you," the attractive boy replied. Jed extended his arm and the two of them walked out on to the dance floor.

The band was really outdoing themselves that night. The crowd moved in and out among the yards. of twirling skirts and tapping toes as they played tune after tune. Jed and Terry were the star performers. Whenever the young shemale and her handsome escort hit the floor the people would clear a space for them and watch them dance.

The dance was just about over for the night when the master of ceremonies took the microphone and asked for quiet. "Ladies and cowboys! May I have your attention please! It is time to announce the winner of tonight's contest." Complete silence filled the room as everyone turned to listen to the contest results. "The judges have unanimously chosen... Miss Terry Garret as QUEEN OF THE SQUAREDANCE!" The crowd thundered its approval. Women surrounded him from all sides hugging and kissing him in congratulations. They made a path for him as he was pushed toward the stage. Tina walked alongside of him with tears flowing down her cheeks. He was in such a daze he needed her assistance to make his way up the steps to the platform.

On stage the judge placed a silver crown on
