Gayle Keo - In Her Arms: A Transgender Romance Story

Patricia looked forward to the party that would be held at the Four Seasons. It was her first appearance at any social gathering since she had transformed herself from a man to a woman and she was hoping that now that she was a woman, she would finally get people to recognize her. Her old life as a man had been a living hell since she always felt like she had been born in the wrong body. Since she identified as a woman but had the body of a man, she had never managed to get into any meaningful relationships. Before the sex change, people used to confuse him for a woman because of his high-pitched voice and feminine traits. It was a confusing time for Patrick, the boy, growing up. He grew up in a loving home, but it was his struggle to find and accept himself as the person he needed and wanted to be: Patricia. Patricia thought back on how her life had been when she had been a man. As a boy, his classmates had always made fun of him, tagging him as a girl and he had hated it. In the ending, he hated the boys for the way that they treated him and longed to be a woman. He often wondered why he had not just been born a woman instead of being born a man that everyone made fun of. The only people who seemed to appreciate him were his three sisters and his mother, but that was not enough to satisfy him. He had wanted appreciation from his peers, both the boys and girls. Even some of his teachers in high school had made fun of him, and hed had to change schools quite a few times, looking for a place where he could fit in.

He had graduated at the top of his school and had been accepted to Harvard, where he had studied law, but still things at the college were the same. Everyone treated him as a weirdo, and he vowed that when he finished school, he would have a sex change so that he could finally be what he always felt like she should be- a woman. That is exactly what had happened. As soon as he had graduated from college, he began the painful transformation from Patrick to Patricia. It was more difficult to make that change, but once it complete, he finally comfortable with himself and started his new life as Patricia Snowball. Once the transformation was complete, Patricia moved to Miami since she could not go back to New York and face the torment of those that had known her as a man.

In Miami, Patricia had gone ahead and changed all of her documents, changing her name from Patrick to Patricia, her surname remaining Snowball. Life there seemed to have gotten a little better, and she had immediately made new friends, her best friend being Mia Marsh, also a professional attorney and a very sexy one too. Mia was the sort of woman who loved life and when one was around her, her good humor affected them. She was also very influential and known around the city and a good influence on Patricia's life.

Patricia had happened to meet with Mia by coincidence. She had gone to a law firm to look for a job as a partner. She and Mia had sat in the lobby, each of them waiting for their appointments. They had begun talking and immediately clicked. They shared a lot of common interests. The only difference between them was that Mia had been having sex ever since she was a teenager, while Patricia was still a twenty-three-year-old virgin.

You must be kidding me, Mia had told her once. You seem to talk so passionately about sex and yet you have never had it. What kind of woman are you? Maybe you should hang around with me a lot more often. I'm pretty sure that you'll get a taste of the best experience that a woman could ever have.

Maybe youre right. Back in New York I just couldnt seem to find anyone worth my while, Patricia had said to Mia, leaving out the part that she had been a man back then and not a woman.

The past few months had been great and many men had hit on her, but she just wasnt ready for sex yet. She felt the strong urge to have sex, and the doctor had advised her that it was one of the side effects, but she was to wait until she was fully healed before she could indulge in any form of physical sex. The doctor had finally cleared her a couple of days ago and now she almost couldnt wait to break her virginity. She could not believe the sudden craving that she had for sex, because as a man, she had never ever felt the urge to have sex. She would wake up every once in a while with a hard on, but that was just as far as it went, no cravings, and no lust like the one she felt right now. She almost jumped when her phone rang and she reached for it and picked the call.

Whats up, girlfriend, I havent heard from you all day, Mia said cheerily into the phone.

Hi Mia, I'm sorry, I had planned to call you as soon as I got back home from the office, Patricia said to her best friend.

I just called to remind you of the party at the Four Seasons today, my car or yours? Mia said quickly.

Why dont we take yours. That way if you get a man, I can drive it back home for you, Patricia said.

Okay Pattie, make sure that you are looking all sexy because I hear that the party is going to be packed with all the people that matter. It really wouldnt hurt if you tried out having sex tonight, you know. It will make you ask yourself why you had not done it sooner. I'll pick you up at nine, thats in about an hours time, she said, before hanging up.

Patricia looked at her watch and flipped her laptop closed. Tomorrow was Saturday and she would have plenty of time to finish the extra work that she had brought home with her. She got up and made her way up the stairs of her apartment to her bedroom. As she removed her clothes, she checked out her body in the full-length dressing mirror. She knew that she had an irresistibly sexy body, nice firm breasts and hips that were even wider than Mia's. Her blonde locks hung around her shoulders and they matched her blue eyes. Her eye lashes had grown longer than they had been when she was a man, while her lips had thinned out a little.
