LACTOGENESIS XXII: THE HALLOWEEN PARTY, PART ONE "Hello?" "Hi, Sherri. Chris. How's the costume coming?" "All done. Will you be ready to leave in, say, fifteen minutes?" "I need a little help getting the last bit of makeup on. Can you give me a hand?" "No prob. Be there in two shakes of a cow's tail." Chris hung up the phone and returned to the task of getting into costume for Sherri's friend Jeremy's Halloween party-slash-orgy which was scheduled to begin within the hour. She had racked her brain all the previous week, trying to decide on a costume which would fit Jeremy's requirement that it reflect some unique aspect of her sexuality. In both Chris's and Sherri's cases lactation was the obvious choice, but choosing an appropriate costume had been less obvious. Sherri had chosen to go with self-effacing humor and dress as a dairy cow, but Chris wanted something more subtle. Her inspiration had come just a couple of nights before, as she was viewing a late-night showing of the film "A Clockwork Orange" on cable -- specifically, a scene in which Alex and his droogs are relaxing in a futuristic bar, drinking glasses of milk laced with hallucinogenic drugs. They refilled their glasses from the spouting breasts of white plastic sculptures of nude women with exaggerated figures and wild hair. Perfect, Chris had thought. The reference is a little obscure, but that will make for a good conversation-starter. The man at the costume shop was a little puzzled when Chris bought practically his entire supply of Clown White stage makeup and an outrageously voluminous white wig, but he knew better than to ask questions, especially at Halloween. The only other thing she'd needed to complete the costume was a white bikini bottom -- Chris wasn't about to go to the party *completely* nude, just mostly so. The act of smearing her body, and particularly her breasts, with the thick white makeup cream had given her a slight sexual buzz, just enough to increase her level of anticipation for the coming events of the evening and dissipate what was left of her fear of the unknown. She covered herself in white makeup from head to foot, which gave her the illusion that she was actually wearing something when in fact her only clothing was the bikini bottom. She had finished adjusting the huge white wig and was putting on some overexaggerated false eyelashes when Sherri arrived. "Jesus, you look like the ghost of Dolly Parton," she quipped. "And you look like Elsie herself," Chris retorted, laughing. Sherri's costume was of black and white cloth, in the pattern of a prime Guernsey, complete with tail, ears, and six breasts which served as an udder. The top pair were Sherri's own, protruding from holes in the fabric and painted to match the two fake pairs immediately below. Sherri was chewing a large wad of gum, obviously intended to simulate cud. Once the two finished complimenting each other on their choices of costumes, Sherri helped Chris put makeup on the part of her back she hadn't been able to reach. She finished by dusting Chris with powder that set the makeup so it wouldn't readily rub off. Chris then donned an old long coat and white sandals that she didn't mind getting messy; and they were off, driving carefully so as not to get pulled over. Chris didn't want to have to explain her costume, or lack thereof, to a cop. Sherri didn't bother to cover herself; she got a kick out of flashing her "udders" at passing motorists all the way out to Jeremy's place. "Some pad, isn't it?" Sherri asked as they pulled up to the house. "Estate would be more like it," Chris commented. Indeed, Jeremy's digs were absolutely palatial compared to Chris's humble abode. The house was of white stone, a contemporary design, 5000 square feet easy. It sat in the middle of a plot of land so large that the next door neighbors could not be seen. Manicured hedges and a small reflecting pool with a fountain (a Venus figure with water flowing from her breasts, Chris noted) complimented the cobblestone paths leading to a huge double door, which was illuminated with a blacklight. A suit of armor with glowing red eyes in the visor stood guard. Sherri rang the doorbell, then giggled when a recording of a bloodcurdling scream replaced the expected "ding-dong". Suddenly the two were bathed in blood-red light from overhead floods, and the doors opened inward on very squeaky hinges, in classic haunted-house style. There was no one in the doorway. Instead, a recording of a fairly good Bela Lugosi imitation bade them enter. The entrance foyer and the hallway leading away from it were darkened, illuminated only with a few meager candles. Fake cobwebs brushed at them as they moved slowly down the hall. At the far end, a robotic skeleton was beckoning to them, pointing at another door. Chris could hear music and the hum of voices in conversation behind it. "This must be the place," Sherri said. "Ready?" Chris steeled herself. Another step on the journey, she told herself. How's this for self-discovery? I'm about to enter a room full of strangers, clad in nothing but white makeup, and most likely have sex with at least one of them. A year ago, who'da thunk it? Her id won the battle with her superego: she removed her coat and stood there in her brilliant white, almost-naked glory. Her nipples instantly responded to the slight autumn chill in the air. In the unsteady light of the hallway, she looked eerily magnificent. She draped the coat over the skeleton's outstretched hand and said, "Let's do it." Sherri knocked on the door. After a few seconds it opened to reveal their host. Jeremy was as Sherri had described him: short but muscular, chiseled good looks, and quite hirsute. He had a Kirk Douglas-like dimple in his chin. It was hard to tell where his own body hair stopped and that of his costume started. He was dressed as a satyr. Thick brown "fur" ran in a stripe down his back and spread out to cover his lower torso and legs. He had painted his exposed skin brown. Prosthetic horns sprouted from his forehead, his ears were pointed Spock-style, and makeshift hooves were on his feet. He held a drink in one hand and a panpipe in the other. Chris noticed none of this, however. Her eyes were riveted on his penis, which hung freely down a good length of his furry thighs. It began to stir as Jeremy beheld his two new guests. He had painted it brown as well. He stepped back and scanned Sherri up and down. He grinned broadly as he said to her, "That's great. I love it. What a stitch." He leaned closer and added, "I hope you're prepared to show us why you're dressed like that." Sherri smiled back. "Pervert," she said. She indicated Chris. "Jeremy, I'd like you to meet my friend Christine." He took Chris's hand and kissed it. His eyes shone mischeviously as he looked up into her face. His erection was becoming more noticable. "Of course, the fair milkmaid," he said. "I have been waiting a long time to meet you. Sherri tells me you're one of a kind." Chris could think of no response. Jeremy gave her a much longer visual examination than he had Sherri. Chris felt her nipples stiffen even more under his penetrating gaze. Finally he said, "Let me guess. Clockwork Orange, right?" Chris sent a surprised look at Sherri. "Told you he'd know it," Sherri said. Jeremy stepped behind them and ushered them through the door. He touched a button on the wall which muted the music and caused the other guests to look in his direction. "Everyone," he announced, "this is Sherri and Christine. They're here to make sure that you all have your minimum daily requirement of dairy products." A few chuckles from those who had gotten a good look at Sherri's costume. Most didn't understand his reference, so Jeremy continued, "Never mind. I'm sure you'll find out for yourselves later. Everybody is here now, so let the games begin!" Chris leaned close to Sherri and hissed into her ear, "Oh, great. Why not tell the world? I don't want these people grabbing my boobs and trying to milk them." "Yes, you do, or you wouldn't have dressed like that," Sherri whispered back. Chris was shocked, not because of what Sherri'd said, but because she realized that she was right. When will I stop surprising myself? she thought. Jeremy placed himself between Sherri and Chris, put each arm around a waist, and guided them toward the bar. Halfway there a woman in a black leather B&D outfit sauntered up to Jeremy and without warning pinched the head of his penis between black-nailed fingers. He didn't flinch. "Well, Jeremy love, I guess we all know who *your* favorite is," she said, and walked on. Chris wasn't sure what she meant until she glanced downward. Jeremy was now sporting a tremendous erection that was brushing the hair on his belly. When she was finally able to look up again, she saw Jeremy wearing an ever-so-slight grin and arching one eyebrow as if to say, "What did you expect?" She glanced over to Sherri, who was also wearing an enigmatic smile, only hers seemed to say, "He's all yours if you want him." She stole another look at Jeremy's impressive manhood, and suddenly found herself wondering if the body paint covering it would come off inside her. Another movie cliche flashed through her mind: Bette Davis on a stairway saying, "Fasten your seat belts. It's going to be a bumpy ride."
