ALEXIS Season 1 Part 1
By: chagrinriddle
Introduction: This is a story about a girl who is born a hermaphrodite, and of her growing up different. This story has a little bit of sex, but it’s mostly plot and characters and all that stuff. Now you know. I hope you enjoy.

Part 1
“Do you want to know the sex of the child?” Dr. Salinzki asked as he placed the ultrasound’s transducer over Anne Williams’ belly. “Your baby should be developed enough by to be able to tell with the ultrasound.”
“I think it would be good to know that, don’t you?” Anne asked her husband.
“Easier to decorate the nursery, isn’t it?” Jeff Williams said in good humor.
“Okey-doke,” Dr. Salinzki said as the image of Anne’s uterus appeared on the screen. Salinzki studied it for a moment, and he frowned. “Um, Mrs. Williams? I could be mistaken, but this ultrasound seems to show… something…”
“What’s the problem, doc?” Jeff said, as his wife gripped his hand harder. Jeff didn’t like to beat around the bush.
“Well, your child appears to be…”
“Out with it!”
“The baby is a hermaphrodite, Mr. Williams.”
Anne and Jeff took it in. They were prepared for things like the baby being born with a mental handicap, but this sort of thing never crossed their minds.
“Are you sure?” Jeff asked, after too long a silence.
“It appears to be that way. But the baby is still developing, so it might not come out that way. If you look here-” Salinzki pointed at the screen, “-you can see the penis, and here the testicular sac is forming, but it appears to be forming around a vaginal opening. Now, I don’t mean to worry you if I’m wrong, so we’ll make some still images of this and send it to the lab, and next month we’ll do another ultrasound, and we may find out I’m just going cross-eyed.”
But Dr. Salinzki was not going cross-eyed, and the next month, when Anne and Jeff went back, the situation remained the same. The baby appeared to be forming a normal set of male genitals, but a vaginal opening still appeared on the sonogram. Mr. and Mrs. Williams had to be prepared for the possibility when the birth came around.
“But, this is not unheard of, of course,” Salinzki told them on their next check-up. “I have never personally delivered a hermaphroditic baby before, but a colleague of mine has, and when a baby is born like that, only one set of organs is fully formed, and the other is not, so surgery will take care of the unformed genitals, you see?”
“So, if the baby is equipped completely like a man, you’ll sew up the woman parts?” Jeff said.
“That’s one way of putting it, I suppose. And that, actually, is exactly what it looks like. Your baby is forming male genitals just fine, so the female genitals will not be fully formed when it’s born. So if you want to give your child the surgery, and I recommend it, you will be having a baby boy.”
Anne and Jeff discussed it, and decided that they would, indeed, have surgery done on the baby if the need arose.
There was a problem, however. When the baby was born, it turns out both sets of genitals were fully formed, which is exceptionally rare. Not many people had ever seen such a thing. Anne and Jeff didn’t know what to do. It was easy enough to name the baby Alex – whether that would be short for Alexis or Alexander was something else – but what gender role should they give their baby?
Dr. Salinzki explained that the baby might grow up being torn between the two gender roles – perhaps wanting to play with Barbie dolls and GI Joes, or the baby might simply gravitate toward one sex or the other, which, if surgery was to be performed, would leave a 50/50 shot at getting it right. The alternative – not getting surgery and letting the baby grow and decide for itself – would lead to numerous complications in social life. Things as simple as what bathroom to use might lead to endless embarrassments on the part of the child. Besides, they couldn’t possibly refer to the baby as “it” instead of “he” or “she”.
Faced with a decision, Anne and Jeff decided to go ahead with the surgery to remove the female organs and raise the child as a boy.
They guessed wrong.
Well, half wrong.
Alex did indeed grow up to fulfill the male social role: she played with action figures and videogames and hung out with the boys at school – and Alex’s parents were relieved. They appeared to have guessed right.
That is until, at the age of eleven, Alex started growing breasts. Alex’s voice never got deeper, and he never grew facial hair, or any other things that happen to boys when they hit puberty. Instead, Alex hit puberty like a girl – breasts, curves, the works (except for a period of course, as she no longer had that organ). And as for fulfilling the masculine gender role: if Alex had been a girl, would she not have simply been labeled a tomboy?
So, for the first ten years of Alex’s life, her parents raised a boy. But faced with obviously feminine puberty, they realized their mistake. They took her to a doctor, who confirmed their fear. Eventually, they sat Alex down and explained the situation. Alex took it well, and understood her parents’ decision at her birth. She did not get mad at them, but she asked plenty of questions and did not stop until she was satisfied. She was curious, rather than outraged, to her parents’ relief. When they finished their conversation, which lasted hours, Alex went off to bed to think about what she had learned.
In the morning, she told her parents that she wanted to be referred to as a girl from then on, and she wanted to go out and get a bra. She still liked to dress like a boy – plain shirts and jeans – but she began to shop in the girls’ section. She wore girl’s panties at first, too, but then decided they didn’t seem to fit right, and so stuck with boxers. She still hung out with the boys, because she was still a tomboy of sorts, but she started to grow her hair long. After talking with her school counselor and principal, she was allowed to switch to the girls’ bathroom. All of the students in her school knew now her full story, and she got two reactions. Some people were ok with it, and acted toward as if she were totally a girl, and others, like bullies and bratty girls, ostracized her for being different. She took it with pride, and never let it get to her. Her good friends defended her, and she got in trouble many times for fighting. She may have thought of herself as a girl, but she was not afraid to stand up for herself.
By the age of twelve, bullies had already given up confronting her, but behind her back they called her names, Dicksy Chick being the most prevalent and punny. She knew, but she didn’t care. Everyone in the world could know she had a penis, and she wouldn’t care. She was used to it.
What she was not used to, however, was discovering her sexuality.
She discovered that she was attracted to boys, and she was quickly budding into one of the cutest girls in the school. Boys were attracted to her, too, but they would never admit it, and try their damnedest not to show it, because while they might stick up for her against the bullies, it would be social suicide to be seen in that kind of a relationship with Alex. Gay was the word of the day, and liking a dude, no matter if that dude should have been a chick or not, might get you killed by the bullies.
Since no boy would touch her, Alex learned to touch herself. She discovered masturbation, and sometimes she when she was talking to a cute guy, she would have to hold her books down at her crotch to hide her boner, just as the cute guys did around her.
Being a bit more flexible than most guys, she even learned to suck her own dick – and when she did that, she also learned she didn’t mind swallowing. She discovered porn like any boy does, and sometimes she imagined herself as the man in the scene, sometimes the woman – every once in a while she would fantasize about having a vagina, and she went a little sad at the thought.
She wanted a boyfriend, but even she knew why they didn’t want her. It seemed like an impossible barrier to get over, but then one day she mustered up the courage to get her cute friend Matthew away from the crowd, and asked him point blank if he would go out with her. Before he could think of the consequences, he said yes, and regretted it a moment later. He, like most of the boys in the school, thought she was really cute and really cool, so in the moment she asked, it seemed like an obvious answer to say yes.
Alex and Matthew both discovered quite quickly that somehow word had spread, and before they even had a date everyone knew that they were an item. But, to Matthew’s astonishment, everyone supported him, in public and in private. The bullies didn’t go after him, and no one called him gay. Someone once mentioned that he was “taking one for the team,” but no one laughed. The student body was ok with it.
Someone else wasn’t. Mrs. Roberts, the history teacher, heard the whispers, and felt the need to tell the principal, who felt the need to call Alex’s and Matthew’s parents. Alex’s parents were thrilled that Alex was going to have a normal relationship.
Matthew’s father was not so understanding. Matthew’s father beat him to a bloody pulp, told him he was a good-for-nothing faggot, and was summarily arrested for abusing his son.
Alex cried when she heard what had happened to him. She thought it was all her fault. She visited him once in the hospital, but he was bandaged and bloody and sleeping. She cried then, too, and couldn’t bear to see him again like that.
Matthew was in the hospital for a month, and was much worse for the wear after he got back. The loss of his father was the worst he suffered, but his new fear compelled him to break up with Alex. They had never had a single date.
Students heard what had happened to Matthew, and many of them didn’t blame him for splitting up with Alex. Some boys even began to be scared of their own parents, in place of the guilt they felt for secretly liking Alex.
A boy named John Woods was a bit braver than most students. He was one of many that found Alex attractive, so one day he went to his parents and asked point blank what they would do if he started seeing Alex as a girlfriend. His parents already knew about her, of course, and about what had happened to Matthew. But his parents did not get angry, and after the initial shock of the question, replied as calmly as they could that they would allow it, as long as John knew what he was doing.
The next day John asked Alex to be his girlfriend, at lunchtime, rather than in private, and with dozens of eyes upon her, Alex said “I don’t want you to get hurt, like Matthew got hurt.” She liked John, too, and couldn’t bear the thought of another person being put in the hospital on account of her.
Even though many kids winced at the mention of Matthew, John replied quite simply “I won’t be hurt.”
Alex was on the verge of tears, thinking of the consequences, but she choked them back, and said “Yes.”
There was no burst of applause, no cinematic explosion like the end of a cheap movie, but rather the hiss of whispers filled the air. People were apprehensive about this, mostly because they feared John’s safety. They didn’t know his parents had already accepted his decision.
But John sat down next to Alex, and held her hand for the rest of the lunch period to keep her from crying.

John and Alex hung out more during school, and went on two dates, first seeing the latest Harry Potter movie, and then going to the arcade. They held hands in the hallways, but for awhile, that was the most that happened. The school collectively sighed in relief that John wasn’t beat up by his dad, and everything seemed to be going normal, just like any other couple.
With summer approaching, Alex and John decided to go mini-golfing for their third date. It turned into a double-date, as they met John’s friends Nancy and Scott there, just as they were starting. They decided to all play together. They all lived fairly close to the mini-golf course, so they walked home afterward. When they reached Alex’s street, Nancy and Scott said they would continue and John could bring Alex to her door.
Alone now, Alex and John stood awkwardly in front of Alex’s door, not really sure what to do. John counted the dates in his mind, and wasn’t sure whether to follow the “third date rule” or not.
He went for it.
John kissed Alex smack on the lips, but went a little too fast, so Alex almost fell. John caught her, but kept his lips on hers for as long as he thought was good. Both of them lost track of time in that kiss. Alex had obviously never kissed a boy before, and she didn’t know what to do. But she loved it, so after the shock faded she kept her lips tight to his, and closed her eyes to enjoy the kiss more.
John had kissed a girl before, but with the other girl he didn’t feel at all like he felt about Alex. He liked Alex as a cute girl, and he liked Alex because she was “just one of the guys,” and he liked Alex for a reason he couldn’t define, but whatever that reason was, it made his heart beat really fast.
John didn’t want to stop kissing her, but he eventually did when he thought it had been long enough, although he knew that he couldn’t exactly tell what “long enough” constituted.
Alex opened her eyes, and smiled. John gave her a brief hug and said goodbye. Alex wanted to hug him again, and kiss him again, but she knew she wasn’t supposed to. She said goodbye to him, and walked into her house.
John walked fast back up the street. He was full of energy quite suddenly and his heart was racing. At the top of the street, Nancy and Scott were waiting.
“Did you kiss her?” Nancy asked. Her tone said quite clearly that nothing would delight her more.
“That’s my business, I think,” John said, blushing.
“You did! You did!” Nancy shouted gleefully. Scott smiled at John in a way that meant the same thing as what Nancy was doing. That he was happy for them.
Alex no longer had a crush on John. She was now in full-blown eighth-grade love, and there was nothing more wonderful in the world to her.
The next day, Alex began introducing herself as Alexis.
