Cluck 'n Cover was a fast food chain specializing in chicken. It was a surprise to many when they decided to roll out a breakfast menu, and an even larger surprise when it became a huge hit in an already saturated market. Alex, who was already working closing shifts at his local Cluck 'n Cover had jumped at the chance to take the new morning shifts, meaning after his afternoon classes he was then done for the day. This had worked out well for Alex, up until this morning.

He rushed through the backdoor of the restaurant to the clock-in computer and hurried to log in. Alex was breathing hard as he entered his employee number, his fingers almost shaking. He let out a long sigh when he saw he had made it on time, with about 30 seconds to spare.

“You’re cutting it close there, Alex.” His manager, Steve, smirked from the doorway. “What, were you up late dying your hair?”

“I just had a rough night,” Alex grumbled as he went to the lockers to stash his backpack.

“That explains your demeanor but not the blue hair.” Steve called after him.

“I’m just going out to see a band perform tonight, ok? There’s nothing in the employee handbook against it.” Alex said as he put his uniform cap on, hiding most of his blue hair from view. “Do you want me on the registers or the fryer today?”

Steve chuckled, but dropped the subject.“Take the register, I’ll be training Laura on the fryer this morning, but expect to switch if things get hectic.”

Alex nodded and went to go count up his drawer.

I knew Steve was going to be an ass about the hair, but I think he bought my story. Distracted him from chewing me out about being almost late, so that’s a plus. Also helps this uniform is loose enough to hide any other changes.

Alex got started with the opening procedures. As soon as Steve unlocked the door, customers came pouring in. If any of the customers noticed the locks of blue hair sticking out from under Alex’s cap, no one said anything. A busy, if normal, morning at Cluck 'n Cover was just what he needed to sort through the events of the previous night.

I know I slept in, but I think I actually slept well last night. Better than usual if I think about it. I feel…how do I feel? Different I guess. It's almost like I'm in someone else's body. Everything feels so fluid and smooth.

Alex’s motions did seem more smooth and graceful as he made change, served drinks, and even as he refilled the condiment packets. Halfway though his shift he took his break. Alex slipped out behind the restaurant and pulled out his phone. He smiled when he saw a text from Iris already waiting for him.

After his break Steve moved him back to the fryer. They needed a good bit of chicken ready to go for the lunch rush, even if Alex wasn’t going to be there for it. After being around food all morning, He was starting to get hungry, but he would pick up something on his way to class. Alex’s own personal rule was not to eat where he worked.

“Hey Alex,” Steve called as the young man finished filling the warming trays. “Before you clock-out, could you get another bag of fries and nuggets from the freezer?”

“Sure thing.” Alex headed over to the walk-in and opened the heavy door.

Of course it was cold inside, it was a giant refrigerator after all, but for some reason it really hit Alex hard. His entire body was covered in goose pimples before he even grabbed the bag of fries. His uniform shirt did nothing, he might as well have been naked in the walk-in. Alex hurried to grab a bag of nuggets and to get out. He dropped off the food with Kenny, who had just clocked in for his midday shift and he hurried to his locker.

Alex couldn’t get over how cold and vulnerable he had felt. There wasn’t a day he didn’t have to get something out of the walk-in, but it never felt so cold before. Alex hurried to the break room to change out of his uniform shirt into some regular clothes for class. Even after pulling on a hoodie, Alex still felt vulnerable. It hit the young man just how much he missed the feeling of Goowenu covering and protecting his body.

Well, I can’t run home to change, so it will have to wait until after class. Alex thought as he hurried out of the Cluck 'n Cover to catch the next bus. It’s Thursday, so there are just two classes before I can head home. I can handle that, right?

Alex tried his best to get comfortable on the bus, but no matter how he shifted, nothing seemed to feel right. Normally the bus ride to the university campus gave Alex a chance to relax after work, but he just felt more stressed and uncomfortable by the time he got off the bus. Alex hurried to the student cafe and ordered a fruit smoothie. He normally would get some solid food too, but he wasn’t feeling it right now. Alex dragged himself to his first class, getting there only a few minutes before the start.

He tried his best to pay attention and take notes, but he couldn’t focus on the equations the professor was putting up on the whiteboard. All he could think about was slipping back into the strange alien suit back at his apartment. Alex’s next class was not much better. He didn’t mean to be disrespectful to the professor, but Alex couldn’t stop daydreaming about how perfectly comfortable Goowenu made him feel. When class was dismissed, he pulled himself up onto his feet and dragged himself back to the bus stop. Alex wasn’t going to waist a second longer than he had to get home and slip into something much more comfortable.

As lethargic and tired as Alex was feeling, he still rushed up the steps to get to his tiny apartment. Goowenu was waiting for him exactly where he had left the alien suit. Alex leaned back against the door, staring across the room at the limp pink suit. For hours now, all he had wanted to do was slip it on, but now he found himself unsure. Was it really a good idea? Were things going to get even worse tomorrow? How about for his double shift planned for Saturday? In the end, Alex had to put it on. He stripped out of his clothes, leaving a trail of cast off clothing all the way to the futon.

It was easier to slip it on than it had been the night before. It was like Goowenu was just as desperate to be worn as Alex was to put it on. He felt a rush as the slimy interior hugged and caressed every part of his body. It was better than an energy drink as Alex felt refreshed and fully alert once more.

“That’s better…” Alex sighed.

Yes, it is.

“For you too, huh?”

Do you know how boring it is to just lay on the bed all day?

“I’m sorry, next time I’ll leave the TV on.”

That’s not the point. I need you, just like you need me.

So, that’s why I couldn’t keep thinking about you all day long, feeling tired and vulnerable all day then?

Most likely. I don’t know why you insisted on trying to separate us, what did that accomplish for you anyway?”

“As comfortable as you are, I’m pretty sure that would be a uniform violation at Cluck 'n Cover.”

You are worried about how others will view us together?

“There’s an understatement.”

Perhaps if we had more time to train you on my use you would be better equipped to take me out of this room with you.

“What do you mean? I know I’m more flexible and have better balance and agility when wearing you, like how we were able to climb the tree like it was nothing.”

That is just the passive effects I have on your body. There is far more, if you can take a moment to learn.

“Well, we have some time before Iris gets here, so teach me then.”

Very well. Hold out your hand.

“Which one?”

Whichever you are most comfortable with.

Alex shrugged and held out his right hand.

Now, focus on that blue book on the shelf.

How can he see my old trig textbook? Alex wondered, but he did as was asked.

Suddenly a tentacle lashed out from his hand, grabbing the book firmly before pulling it across the room. Alex was so surprised that he dropped the heavy textbook to the ground.

“Wow, that’s crazy.”

It is just a basic tentacle; we can use them for a variety of purposes, from climbing to fighting.

“Fighting? I’m not looking to get in any fights.”

Sadly, that doesn’t mean others won’t seek us out.

“Let me try that again.”

Alex practiced with retrieving books and various items from across his room. He made it a bit of a game shooting finger-guns at the items before snatching them with a tentacle.

“What else can you do?”

I can augment your muscles, allowing you to do feats of strength you normally couldn’t, but there is a catch.

“What kind of catch?”

I would still be using your existing bones; too much force and they could snap like twigs.

“Oh, oh yeah, that would be bad… So I could move the futon easier but I shouldn’t try lifting a car over my head then?”

That would be a wise assessment.

“Let’s just stick to the futon then, normally I can barely drag it on the floor.”

Alex squatted down at one end of the futon. As he slipped his hands under the edge he could feel Goowenu oozing into position and seemingly pumping up along his muscles. With a minimum of effort, Alex lifted up the edge of the futon.

“Wow, ok, I could have used your help on move-in day.” Alex carefully lowered the futon back onto the ground. He was just about to ask what else Goowenu could do when he heard a text alert come in on his phone.

Checking his messages he saw it was from Iris and she was on her way over. He wrote a quick confirmation text before flopping down onto the futon.

What is wrong?

“Nothing, not really anyway. Iris is on her way over and we are going out tonight.”

And? How is time with your companion a bad thing? Especially if it gets you out of this tiny room.

“I just…I can’t go out to the bar dressed like this,” Alex tapped his chest, “Not to mention how do I explain you to Iris?” Alex shook his head. “I don’t want to take you off again, but I don’t want to be seen in you just like this.”

Ah, I understand. It would appear my true form hardly blends in on this planet. I can help with the situation.

“Why do I sense there is a ‘but’ in there somewhere?”

I will require another meal to initiate my camouflage capabilities.

“Another meal? You mean milk another orgasm out of me, don’t you?”

You seemed to enjoy it, I don’t see why you would fight me on it.

“I have a girlfriend, you know I don’t need to…”Alex trailed off as he felt Goowenu start to gently massage his bulge. “H-hey!”

She is already on the way, we don’t have much time, do we?

Alex bit his lip and shook his head. Goowenu took that as all the consent he needed to move forward. He flopped down onto the futon as the simulation expanded beyond his crotch. On his chest he could feel his puffy nipples being sucked and squeezed. They didn’t used to be so sensitive, or so large, before Alex had found the suit. Down at his crotch his shaft was being stroked, becoming almost painfully hard as it stretched to new lengths. Each of his balls was being gently caressed and rolled around.

Alex let out a loud mewling moan as his body was stimulated from head to toe. When he felt the suit pressing in against his ass he did his best to relax and let it in. Alex clenched the sheet tightly in his hands as his back arched off the bed.

Eyes shut tight as he writhed on the futon, Alex was oblivious to the changes his body was going through. His shoulders rounded and shifted down to a more acute angle. The lines of his cheekbones softened slightly. Around his stimulated nipples the breast tissue started to show a bit of swelling. Down around Alex’s bucking hips they grew more curved and his ass filled in rounder.

With his mouth open in an almost silent scream, Alex finally hit. The tip of the suit covering his enhanced cock ballooned out as his balls dumped another ridiculous load of seed. Alex collapsed back down onto the futon, panting heavily as Goowenu slowly digested the meal. Even after catching his breath, Alex continued to lay down in a daze. After several minutes, he slowly pushed himself up and shook his head, trying to clear it.

“Oh god, I hope that was enough for you.” Alex sighed as he rubbed his eyes.

It was satisfactory. Now, get up and stand in front of the mirror.

Alex did as requested. He was staring at his body, noticing there had been a few more changes since last night. Before he could say anything, however, Goowenu started to ripple in shape and color. After a moment Alex looked just like he had when he came back from class. He could still feel the comforting feel of Goowenu against his skin, but now he looked like he was wearing a t-shirt, jeans and sneakers.

“That’s not bad, can you do my Cluck 'n Cover uniform too?”

Easily.

Goowenu seemed to melt and reform, making a perfect copy of Alex’s uniform, down to the cap and name badge.

“Wow, that’s perfect. Ok, so for tonight I was going to wear the Rush Puppies shirt Iris gave me a few weeks ago and my concert vest.”

Just focus on what they look like and I can assume the appearance of any clothing.

“Sounds easy, ok…” Alex closed his eyes and focused on how he wanted to look. He was aware of Goowenu shifting against his skin as he tried to visualize it. Alex let out a long sigh and opened his eyes. He blinked several times as he looked at his reflection. It was what he had wanted, sort of. The Rush Puppies shirt was there, as was the vest with various patches from bands he followed, but the shirt was a tank-top now and the vest was cropped at the bottom. He also noticed his hair was not only still blue, but had grown slightly longer.

“That’s not exactly what I was envisioning.”

Do not blame me, you shaped the appearance.

“I don’t-” Alex was cut off by a knock at the door. Alex sighed deeply and tried to pull the vest down with little success. He opened the door a crack, and couldn’t help but smile when he looked up at Iris.

“Hey, are you going to let me in or what?”

“Oh, yeah…” Alex let her in and immediately he was wrapped up in her arms, his face pressed up against her soft breasts.

Alex relaxed for a moment, but then he felt Iris’ hands running over his body, not in a sensual or loving way, more out of surprise. She released her grip and stepped back, taking a good look at Alex.

“Babe? What’s happened to you?”

“W-what do you mean? So are we heading down to the Ten Spot right away or…”

Iris crossed her arms under her full chest and stared down Alex. Her purple painted lips were a narrow line as she waited for an explanation.

“I’ve been trying out this new workout, see I’ve got a bit more tone.” He showed off his bicep but the stare continued.

“Alex.” Her voice was firm and clear.

You are terrible at this. Goowenu added.

“Ok, Ok!” I’ll explain it’s just sort of crazy.” Alex sat down on the edge of the futon. After a moment, Iris joined him.

“Last night, when I was walking home from your place I saw something fall from the sky.”

Iris blinked out of slight confusion. “What do you mean?”

“I think it was some kind of craft…I never asked Goowenu what it was.”

“Goowenu? Are you making up words now?”

“N-no, he, it…I’m not sure on what pronouns Goowenu prefers…Anyway it’s easier if I just show you.

It took a small mental push but soon his clothing seemed to melt and flow over Alex’s body, taking on the normal swirled pink and purple color.

This is Goowenu.” he said tapping his chest, “Some kind of alien suit.”

“Holy shit!” Iris jumped up. “So you just found it and tried it on?”

“It seemed like a good idea at the time.” Alex rubbed the back of his head. “Next thing I knew I could do backflips and shit like some kind of gymnast. That’s how I was able to get Ms Fluffles out of the tree like it was nothing.”

“And how about the other changes?”

“Yeah, I’m not entirely happy with the blue hair.” Alex said as he ran his fingers through his mop of hair.

“Forget the blue hair, take a look at yourself in the mirror. I know you weren't the beefiest manly-man in the city, but now you’re looking pretty feme,” she glanced down at his bulge, “well, other than that…”

“Be careful what you wish for…at this point I’m beyond porn star when I get excited.”

“Hey I never said-”

“I know you didn’t.” Alex placed a hand on hers, “And it means a lot you never said anything, but I know how lackluster I used to be down there. As for the rest, I don’t know what’s happening to me.”

“Can’t you take the thing off?”

“I did take it off for work and school today, but it drove me crazy. I needed Goowenu by the time I got home. At least now they can shape-shift so I can blend in.”

“Why didn’t you just wear him under your regular clothes?”

“I, ah…I didn’t think about that.” Alex blushed with embarrassment. “I’m sorry.”

“I’m still a little upset you didn’t tell me last night what happened.”

“Hey babe, I found an alien super suit on the way home and it helped me to rescue a cat.” Alex replied in a bit of a sarcastic tone.

“Ok, I get your point, but still, trying to hide it once I got here was stupid.”

“Yeah, it was.” He let out a long sigh. “So, what are we doing?”

“Well, I promised Jaden we would be there to see the Rush Puppies tonight. You’re not going to like,ah, eat anyone, are you?”

“What? No of course not…Right?” he looked down at Goowenu.

I think I have made it clear what I feed on.

Alex blushed slightly, but pushed past his embarrassment. “Yeah, Goowenu won’t do that, he’ll just help me blend in with everyone else and enjoy the show.

“Ok then, um, why don’t you get dressed then, again.”

Alex nodded and closed his eyes. He quickly shifted the appearance back to what it was when Iris first showed up. Iris stared at Alex for a bit, tapping her finger against her chin.

“What’s wrong?” Alex inspected his outfit. “Did I mess something up?”

“No, it’s just, um, can I give you some suggestions?” She smiled.

Alex blinked, not expecting this. “What?”

“Well, it’s kind of like the ultimate dress up, isn’t it? What girl wouldn’t get a kick out of it. Now, how about you add a mesh shirt under your tank and vest?”

“Oh come on…”

“Have a little fun, besides, you always like when I wear a mesh top.” She placed her hands on her hips and smirked.

“Ok, fine, just give me a second.” Alex took a deep breath and closed his eyes.

She’s fun, I think I like her.

Alex ignored Goowenu and focused on changing his outfit. As Iris watched a mesh top seemed to grow out from under the Rush Puppies tank top, covering Alex’s arms and hooking around his thumbs. He let out the breath he was holding and looked over at the mirror.

“How’s that?” Alex asked as he inspected his arms.

“Wow, it’s perfect!”

“Uh-huh, can we go now?”

“Just one more thing,” Iris held up a finger, “how about you change the sneakers out for some boots?”

“Really?”

She nodded. “Yeah, with heels.”

“Iris…”

“Just little heels. Your balance is supposed to be superhuman anyway, what’s the excuse?”

She has a point. Goowenu added.

“Alright, but this is the last change for the night.” Alex grumbled.

His ‘sneakers’ liquefied around his feet. They reformed into black leather boots with about an inch of heel. He took a few steps getting used to the effect. It honestly felt good gaining the small bit of height, though between Iris’ natural height and platform heeled boots she still was noticeably taller.

“Ok, that looks much sexier.” Iris beamed.

Alex looked at his reflection and, well, Iris was right he did look sexier. He smiled slightly as he turned slightly to get a better look.

“Let’s head on down to the bar, first round is on me.” Iris said as she took Alex by the hand.

***

After a bus ride and a few blocks of walking they arrived at The Ten Spot bar. It was still early in the evening, so the bar was far from crowded. Iris pulled Alex over to where the band was still setting up and introduced him to the rest of the Rush Puppies. Normally Alex would have felt overly self conscious, but not tonight. Things went smoothly, and he even lent a hand with moving some of the equipment. Alex and Iris wished the band luck before they headed back to the greenroom to prepare for their set. True to her word, Iris bought the first round and handed Alex a cold beer.

“Maybe we should have changed up your style a while ago, it’s really upped your confidence.” Iris said after sipping her beer.

“I think it might be less the style and more the material.” Alex sighed, “or maybe it is both, I don’t know. I’m still getting used to all of this.”

“I can only imagine. So, what are you going to do exactly going forward? Keep rescuing cats out of trees or move onto bigger heroic deeds?”

“What? Like some kind of superhero?” Alex shook his head. “I work in a chicken joint while attending university. What the hell could I really do?”

Iris shrugged. “I don’t know. It’s just that magic alien suit sounds like a superhero origin story to me.”

“This isn’t a comic book, but I see your point. I’m still figuring this whole thing out. But at least I don’t have to worry about buying new clothes anytime soon.”

“Yeah, I’m a little jealous about that.” Iris laughed. “I’ll probably be living vicariously through you for a while.”

Alex shook his head, but chuckled before finishing his beer.

The Ten Spot began to fill up to a pretty good crowd. Looking around Alex could see a few more people wearing Rush Puppies shirts. Iris pushed them through the crowd to get them both right in front of the stage. By the time they made it, the bar manager was taking the mic to introduce tonight’s live entertainment.

Iris screamed and cheered the loudest as the Rush Puppies took the stage. Wasting no time, the band immediately went into their first song. As close as they were to the stage the sound from the amplifiers vibrated through their bodies. Goowenu found the experience rather pleasant. It felt like being massaged by sound. Her taste in music only further increased Goowenu’s opinion of Iris.

Alex and Iris rocked out and the energy was infectious. It was a good crowd, and a hell of a show for a Thursday night. After the double encore, Alex and Iris fought their way back to the bar for more beer. With the performance over, the crowd started to thin a bit. Iris had originally planned to hang out with the band after the show, but now she had a different idea in mind for the rest of the evening.

“Hey, Alex, how are you feeling?”

“Who me? I feel great! That was an awesome show. Goowenu liked it too, so I guess that’s one more Rush Puppies fan at least.”

Iris laughed. “Yeah, it was a good show.” she smiled. “I know I said I wanted to hang out with the guys after the show, but now I’m wondering if it would be better to head back to your place for the rest of the night.”

“Oh? Are you tired?”

“Not exactly.” she placed a hand on her boyfriend’s thigh and squeezed. “I’ve just been rocking out next to you all night and I think I’d like some alone time with you, maybe try out some of your, ahem, recent enhancements.”

Alex’s face blushed deep red and he immediately took a long drink to gather himself. “As, ah, as long as that’s what you want…”

“We’ll stay and have a few beers with the band, of course.”

“Of course.” Alex still seemed a little unsure.

“Trust me, they’ll understand, I mean just look at you.”

Alex let out a soft sigh. “You know I’m a guy right?”

“That wouldn’t stop most of the band, trust me.” Iris winked.

Alex turned beet red before chugging what was left of his beer.

The night just keeps getting better. Goowenu added smugly.

“Iris!” Jaden called out as he and the rest of the band approached the bar.

“Jaden! You guys rocked tonight!”

The band joined them at the bar and ordered a round of shots.

“Glad you came out, I’m sure your screaming got the crowd going.” Jaden smirked and the rest of the band laughed.

“Just doing my part as a fan.”

“So there’s this great little diner about four blocks from here. It doesn’t look special, but they make the best french dip in the city. Are you and your friend up for a late supper?”

“As tempting as that is, Alex has an early morning.

“Early morning, huh?” The drummer snickered, “I don’t think he’s going to be getting that much sleep.”

Alex blushed but Iris just laughed right along. “Ok, you got me. I’m too horny for a sandwich right now.”

“I don’t blame you.” The bassist said, giving Alex the once over.

“Next time, I promise we’ll hang with you.”

“At least stay for a drink.” Jaden said with a smile.

After another round They said goodbye to the Rush Puppies and started back to Alex's place. Iris stayed close to him, arm wrapped around his waist as they walked and rode the last bus of the night. Alex felt more nervous than he ever had with Iris before. He wasn’t even sure how things would work while wearing Goowenu. They got off the bus and headed back to the apartment. Iris stopped to check the sycamore tree in front of the apartment for Ms Fluffles, though thankfully she was not stuck in the tree.

Alex unlocked the door to his apartment and he was immediately pushed inside by Iris. Her lips smashed against his and she kissed him deeply. Alex was surprised, but quickly gave in, melting into the kiss. Iris pushed the door closed with her foot and started to push her boyfriend towards the futon in the center of the room.

Oh man…it’s going to be one hell of a night! Alex mused as he was pulled down onto his bed.

He had no idea how right he was.
