Conrad's tail thumps the ground and he lifts himself to a squatting position. "Jake," he says, "love me."
Conrad launches himself into the kangaroo, wrapping his arms around the girl that used to be his best friend. He didn't know what was driving him, but he drove his face into the kangaroo's neck, taking in the wonderful scent.
As he cuddled, his hands shifted into paws, and his tail continued to expand and grow. Jake let Conrad do whatever he wanted, it felt good and his friend was changing himself, which made everything easier.
Conrad could feel his feet were fully those of a kangaroo, and his tail had grown to a nice size. He pulled himself off of Jake and looked cross-eyed at his face; he now had a black nose and a light coating of fur where he had been nuzzling her. Conrad was confused, torn between his desire for the female and his desire to stay human.
As Conrad tried to clear his thoughts, Jake's paw found it's way under his shirt. The rubbing made it hard to think, but Conrad knew there was something he had to remember.
