Around midnight, they finally began to tire out. With one last mighty bray that nearly pushed them to their hands and knees, they headed to bed. The final bray had sounded completely real, and it had pushed a bump of skin into existence on above their butt crack.
“I think we got it Allison. The other kids will be so jealous!”
Allison gave a realistic bray in response. With that, they wrapped themselves in the donkey fur sheets and fell asleep.
At the morning, Jack and Allison awoke to the sound of braying from the alarm clock. “Nice alarm.”
Jack laughed. “It’s got nothing on us though does it Allison.” Allison gave a bray. It sounded just as real as last night. “Nope. Let’s go rub it in everyone’s faces.
Extricating themselves from the comfortable donkey fur sheets, they began to get dressed. But they stopped when after their pants and shoes were on. “Allison, I think some of that fur rubbed off on us.” He brushed at the dusting of gray fur on his upper body, Allison doing the same.
“It won’t come off.” Allison said pulling on it. “Ouch! It’s attached.”
For the first time, Jack really took stock of himself and Allison. Long gray ears stood high above both their heads, their noses were wide across their face. “I want to go home.” Said Jack worriedly.
“Whyawww?” Allison half brayed, a confused look on her face.
“Something is wrong here Allison.” Jack said.
“Nothing is wrong Jack. We are having the time of our lives! We just spent the night practicing how to bray better, we finally got it down, and were going to rub all the kids’ faces in it and you want to back out? HEE HAW!!!!” She brayed for emphasis. “Doesn’t that feel amazing Jack? You try it once more, look me in the eye, and tell me it doesn’t feel good.”
Jack gave a slight halfhearted “hee.”
“Oh come on Jack. You were all in last night. Give me a real one or I’m leaving you!”
Startled at the thought of losing Allison, Jack pinned his ears back, “Heeeeeeeeeee-HAAAAAAAWWWWWW.” Jack moaned in pleasure.
“See??? Nothing is wrong, this feels wonderful.” Jack smiled. What was he thinking? Grabbing Allison by the arm, they exited, not bothering to put shirts on. As if sensing their nakedness on their upper bodies, the gray fur thickened.
“Let’s grab some breakfast.” Jack said as his stomach gave a mighty rumble. Eating some eggs, they looked for something to drink.
“More beer.” Jack said. “Now you are talking.” Replied Allison. Chugging a few mugs of the island’s donkey beer with pleasure, they decided what to do. Finally deciding on the pool hall, they wandered off. They remembered their successful practice the night before. It was time to impress.
Walking past a group of giggling, hairy girls and boys, they cut loose. “HAW HAW HEEEEEEEE HAWWWWW!” The group of kids stopped and stared. Jack and Allison continued on smugly, hearing a few weak attempts to copy them, but none where as deep throated and realistic as theirs.
“Practice made perfect after all.”Allison said. She watched as a brown haired boy skipped by happily with a tail dangling from his pants. “I want one of those too.” Allison said longingly as a pressure built in her jeans.
Jack agreed as his own jeans got tighter. The boy looked so happy. Finally reaching the pool hall, they found a few donkeys meandering around outside, quietly pulling at the sparse grass. One had socks around its back hooves.
“Hold on Allison, I’m going to help him real quick.” Giving a soft bray, he got the donkey’s attention and pointed at the socks on its hind legs.
The donkey looked at the socks, then back at him, braying. Jack came forward and pulled the socks off the animal’s hooves. “There you go!” He said.
“That was so nice of you Jack!” Allison said, giving him a kiss.“Now, get ready to lose.”
