Franklin wanted to go to the celebration of the Earth New Years which has been put on in the Promenade of the Pavillion. Though New years Day was a couple of days earlier, the year did not match the year on Reykja Penthe anyway. With the influence of the Climatology Center, a year was basically about 60 days on the Beta Penthe planetoid.
Franklin just wanted to try something new. Tan wanted to put on a celebration. The Casino had done some celebrating on the Earth New Year and Leo's had hosted a fabulous brunch on the January 2nd, 2395. Franklin asked Paul to come to the celebration.
Paul looked at Franklin, "Can I dress as a female?"
Franklin looked at Paul, "Of course, my dear."
Franklin knew that this was both a good and a bad idea. The good part was Paul would get an opportunity to appear in public dressed as a female, something that he wanted to do but the bad part is Paul always stressed about how he looked as a female.
Paul was getting changed. He was onto his third outfit. Paul looked at Franklin, "Do I look good?"
"Beautiful.", Franklin looked at Paul.
Paul looked at Franklin, "I wish I could change who I am sometimes. I listened to my father's speech about becoming a female. It would be easier but it is not who I am. I am just weird."
"You are beautiful.", Franklin looked at Paul.
Paul looked at Franklin, "You go on ahead, I will change into my other dress and come down there."
Franklin smiled, "Yes, dear."
Paul changed into a pink mini dress and then activated the growth enzyme in his hair and then headed down to the Promenade for the celebration of Stardate 72000, even if it was 48 hours late.
Franklin looked as Paul came down the stairs into the recreation of Time Square in New York on Earth in the early 2010s. He looked beautiful in his little dress.
Paul looked at Franklin, "Is this okay?"
"Wonderful.", Franklin smiled.
Paul tugged at the bottom of the pink mini dress. He did not want anything extra to show. He was wearing skin tight short boxers to make sure that nothing showed.
Paul and Franklin were soon swinging around the dance floor to retro dance tunes, a tradition of Earth New Years. This was a lot of fun for everyone who attended.
