After several minutes of getting into position behind the wall with no one coming, it was clear Emily wouldn't show. "Must have already found her on the way..." Henry muttered to himself. It was after school and being seen here long after on a Friday was bound to raise suspision so reluctantly, Henry decided to take the suit off and go home. Feeling around the opening of his mouth, his finger caught on a tiny bump on the inside of his lip. "This must be where to pull" he thought and dug his nails into it, pulling as he went. To Henry it felt even stranger than putting the thing on, emerging from the mouth, everything seemed to relax even though it wasn't contracted before. Rolling the suit down, he stepped out and started to get dressed in his normal clothes. Catching a quick glance in the mirror, he was himself again. A sudden realization came to him, he was in the girls' locker room, the place where they got changed, there was bound to be hair lying around in here. Only problem was, whose hair would he find? Thinking for a minute, Henry decided that if it was anything like the boys' room, the more popular people got changed at the back, so he should look there first, but thinking again, he could immediately think of anyone he would say was 'ugly', not in all the five years of girls that got changed in here, so a lucky dip could be fun.
The cleaners must have already have been in because after searching the room top to bottom, Henry could only find two hairs. One was long and sandy coloured and in curled round on itself towards the end. The other was jet black and kind of frizzy, it hadn't been straightened that's for sure.
Getting home, Henry whipped up another batch of the mixture but then was faced with a problem. "I can't use the bath again, it was hard enough stopping everybody going in there last night, I won't be able to handle another night!". Sitting cross-legged on the floor of his room grasping the bowl, Henry looked around for a place big enough to pour the mix. His eye caught on the instructions sheet he was following again, he hadn't seen this bit before, luckily though it wasn't part of the method. It said 'For size changes, wear for half and hour', "That's a point" thought Henry "I'm half a foot taller than Emily..." he trailed off. Looking behind the door he found four thin strips of wood which he'd had for a while for a technology project which never happened. Thinking on his feet, he arranged them on the floor under his bed in a rectangle and then poured the liquid in. Pausing for a moment, there was only room enough to make one suit, which hair was he going to use?
