Transestia
As the officers entered the cottage he was swept by an embarrassment he did not feel in the presence of Elaine and, accepting the proffered slacks and shirt, escaped into the bedroom to change. Reluctantly he discarded the soft nylon underwear and then the tight corselette. The police trousers felt as if they were made of sandpaper at first, but when he returned to the lounge he felt more at ease in front of the police. Again he retold his story and the officers took a signed statement. Elaine confirmed the part from where she had picked him up in the valley. The police told him they had con- tacted the owner of the jewelry who was willing to pay the reward money to his bank in London. The clothing was of no furthur value and he could dispose of it as he wished. When the officers were ready to leave they asked Jim if he was ready too, immediately Elaine said she would look after him and take him to the nearest station after lunch and would lend him any money he needed for train fares and any other incidental expenses. Delighted at the prospect of spending a few more hours in Elaines company Jim readily agreed and the police officers left.
Soon after, Elaine announced that lunch was ready and when the meal was finished Jim helped her to clear away, he was surprised to find he did not feel quite so much at ease in her company, now that he had donned male clothing. Suddenly she suggested they go and sit down in the living room as she had something she wished to discuss with him. Jim won- dered what she wanted to say, fondly hoping she would suggest he stay at the cottage for the rest of his holiday. With the reward money he would be able to pay her for her kindness in the past and pay his way in the future, in addition he had fallen in love with the cottage and its surroundings and Elaine herself held a strange fascination for him. She was extre- mely attractive and never having been in love before, Jim was hoping this strange feeling was the beginning of a true love.
