He’d rather try to hide himself away in the background but at least he doesn’t have to dance around the May Pole. He and the other ‘subjects’ sit at Alice’s feet wearing pure white dresses and flowers in their hair and are tasked with arranging the many bouquets the May Queen was presented with as she sits on her throne. All in all May Day wasn’t a bad day for Billy and for Alice it was like a dream come true. There was even a big photograph of the May Queen and her subjects in the weekly newspaper and Mrs Postlethwaite purchased a framed print of it. Although more or less completely accustomed to dressing like a girl and seeing his girlie reflection, seeing an actual photograph of himself dressed as a girl is beyond strange. No matter how hard he looks at it, he can barely see the boy he knows he is.
