Luke passed a pair of months living as a guy in the light and as a girl in the dark hiding himself from his friends every evening. This was a bit strange to them because they was used to go out and stay with him often after sunset... Going to pubs, nights and similar.
He used several excuses to don't go out after sunset: "I'm busy, I've to babysit my cousin, I've not permission..."
While with is family was different: his parents thought that best thing was advise relatives of what was happening to Luke, just to have a help.
In fact sometimes, when her parents have to spend the evening or the weekend out, they called for one cousin of hers to babysit Lucy .
Cousin's name was Emily, she was 16 and was an asshole. Every time she babysat Lucy she treated her very girly and forced her wearing dresses and playing dolls. Lucy hated it and one time resisted her. But the following morning, turned again into a man but still asleep, Emily punished him masturbating him and so obliging him to stay a girl all the following day. So from that time on, Lucy did exactly what Emily wanted while was babysitted just to avoid that punishment.
One time Luke's best friend Jason invited him to camp together in the weekend. Obviously Luke had to say not, but that time Jason insisted. "Why not? What I've done to you?" "You did nothing I just can't" "don't lie to me Like! We've be buddies since kindergarten! What are you hiding me? You are avoiding me since Christmas!"
Luke can't more lie to him but really was scared "if I tell you I'm sure you won't believe" "say it" asked firmly his friend.
Luke hesitated and at the end said "since Christmas I turn into a girl after sunset due to my uncle's gift." He was really serious but this made Jason laugh and say "OK dude, now the truth" "this is the truth... Come with me at my home and stay untill darkness comes. You'll see".
So Jason went home with Luke. As his mother understood what was happening tried to ask Jason to go home, not wanting to revele family's secret. But Luke instead. "It's my best friend and I don't want to lie him. He'll stay and see".
Jason didn't believe him, but was a good excuse to pass the evening with his friend after months.
When darkness came and Luke turn into Lucy he couldn't believe his eyes "this can't be real! Luke is this actual you!!??"
"Do you believe her now?" asked her father "however call her Lucy" asked mom.
Jason had a lot of questions but had to wait till Lucy changed her clothes. Her mother insisted she wore a dress for that dinner "I know you don't like and me too, I don't want to make you dress girly at home... But I thing it's best for you and your friend that it's 100% clear that you are really a girl". Reluctantly Lucy wore the dress and went to Jason again shocked by the sight of his friend so girly and so little.
Lucy told him all the story from beginning with every details included that of the probability of the permanence as a girl if John didn't find a correct solution.
She also told him about Emily's cruelty and before leaving house Jason asked Lucy's mother if he could babysit her instead than Emily, for free. She said yes, at the only condition that he had anyway to treat her as the little girl she now and take care of her as she was her sister and not simply as she was his game comrade.
Before he went out, Lucy answered yes to his answer about go camping together, sure that she could in someway convince her parents to let her.
