Your best friend Bill was late picking you up; but he soon arrived. You hesitated before going out the door slowly, unsure of how he might react to your new look. Oddly enough, there was a girl in the driver's seat. She had pink hair and, as you got closer, could see the long, pointed ears sticking out practically straight. She made a gesture like Bill always did when he was getting impatient. This set your mind at ease for as much as discovering there might be some kind of "elf epidemic" going around.
You opened the car door. "It got you, too, huh G-wiz?" She said, using a nickname you earned by your tendency to play mage classes in games. That certainly proved this was Bill.
"Looks like it." You agreed as you enter the car. "Any idea what 'it' is?"
"Not a clue... Greg?"
"I guess I'm Gwendolyn, now; at least, that's what my checking account says."
"Well, then, check this out..." She said, handing you her driver's license. Willow was the name printed on it. "Every other ID I have is just like that."
"Willow..." You said, almost wistfully.
You pulled out of the driveway and started off to school; fiddling with your ears a little, you felt they were a bit sensitive... in an almost pleasant way. The windows were rolled down, and the sounds of birds chirping and leaves rustling in the breeze were more vibrant than you ever noticed. these new elven ears of yours were something else.
From time to time, you also looked at Willow as she drove. Seeing your best friend like this was strange to be sure; but one thing you knew, you were still attracted to girls.
