Snow Day


 Took a try at making an image with AI for a caption. I think it turned out cute. 


Sydney was scared and worried, usually
her schoolbus picked her up to take her to
the Ahlberg Academy an hour after her
former classmates were taken to the
public school, but Sydney headed straight
out the door and locked it behind her
before even checking to see if the snow
had affected the day's schedule. So here
she was, locked outside in her boots,
pleated skirt, uniform blouse, and
sweater. If she had known she'd be stuck
outside she would have brought some
tights or leggings. But the cold was the
least of her problems.

The reason Sydney was enrolled in the
Ahlberg Academy, a controversial school
that specialized in turning rebellious or
troublesome young men who had no
desire to get their act together into
productive, if shy, young ladies, was that
as a boy she was caught trying to sneak
into the girl's locker room during gym to
steal some panties. She was forced by
several of her bullies, all of whom denied
it and had parents rich enough to keep
their names clean. After Sydney was
expelled, the Ahlberg Academy offered a
free ride to capitalize on the public case.
This was Sydney's only option to get her
diploma with her Aunt's limited resources.

So now instead of gym, Sydney takes
gymnastics. Instead of shop, Sydney
takes sewing. Instead of digital
photography, Sydney takes cosmetology.
She hasn't interacted with anyone from
her old school, afraid to after the girls
calling him a creep and the guys
threatening him for trying to turn them in.
So now here she was, locked out of her
house while her Aunt was out of town
while everyone from her old school had
the day free to wander the streets.

Maybe they wouldn't recognize her she
hoped... Maybe they'd think it's just some
girl overdressed. She could spend the day
at the library, her legs were freezing, the
hormones and laser hair removal made
her so much more sensitive to the cold...
So she would be warm and could work on
her report for her homemaking class. But
as she approached the building she was
the same jerks who get her into this mess
taking turns licking the flag poles. She
quickly changed course but they began to
shout about the cute chick running down
the sidewalk. She ran in a huff, a lot of
this girlhood stuff she had grown used to,
but knowing that some big scary brutes
were eyeing up her thighs and maybe
more as her skirt floated in the crisp
winter air.

But a car pulled up along the icy sidewalk
and told her to get in, Sydney recognized
Maxi, one of the girls who had told her
she was a sexist creep and a pervert
before she went away, but anybody would
be better than these creeps.

Maxi assured Sydney, who continued
trying to hide her face with her hair that
the meatheads were harmless and
wouldn't know what to do with a girl if
they caught one. Sydney mumbled in
agreement and asked to be dropped off
around the corner, but Maxi insisted on
taking her home, it was no big deal.
Sydney saying she was locked out was
enough to make the girl's identity click in
her head. Sydney begged to be let out.

Maxi informed her that the boys
confessed, bragged rather, that they had
gotten their favorite bullying target to get
expelled AND turned into a girl. Maxi told
her that the girls felt bad and had no more
hard feelings toward Sydney. None of
them she'd turn out so gorgeous.

Maxi told Sydney that nobody was home
at her house, so the two could catch up, if
Sydney is comfortable with it they could
make it a regular thing on weekends.
Sydney breathed a still nervous, but
calming sigh, the day she'd felt most
terrified since the first day at the
Academy where she was stripped of all
masculinity, she was making a new friend
and finding acceptance with someone
who wouldn't look at her twice. Maybe the
school was making her life better.
