Church Trip

by ParticipatingSpectator

 

I just kept telling myself, "This is me now. You'll just have to get used to it." But I knew that was ridiculous. How can someone go through this kind of change and not be phased by it? I have to live my whole life over again! I have to let go of all the things I loved. I wasn't ready to let go!

Why? Why was a question I couldn't stop asking myself. Why did everything have to change? One day I'm a popular teenage boy, people think I'm funny, and I have a respectable amount of close friends.

And then I go to sleep, and everything became different.

We had been planning a church trip to Hot Springs for some time. It was supposed to be fun mixed with religion. I thought it was a stupid idea, but I took it with a grain of salt because I knew I'd have more fun than religion on this trip. As soon as my mom dropped me off at the church, I was looking for Ben. Ben wasn't my best friend, or even one of my best friends, but we had to put up with a lot of church functions together and we usually had fun doing it.

"What's up, Ben." I said.

"Hey. You ready for another rip-roaring week of church rhetoric?" Asked Ben.

"I dunno, after last Sunday's lecture on "What Jesus Means to You". It doesn't get much plainer than that. I could think up these lecture topics in a coma." I said.

All of a sudden, I saw something push my upper leg. I stumbled and almost fell down. When I looked down, Ashley was staring at me.

"Excuuuse me." she demanded.

Ashley was a lot younger than me. I was about 17 and she was around 12. She was this short little brat. She had short hair with a girlish little flip in the back. She got on my nerves, but there was something about her that made me feel funny. The way she walked. She was skinny, but she had a tiny cute little butt, and when she walked it sort of swayed. She was flat chested and she had this cute little nose. Today, she was wearing a tight baby-tee shirt with the Trix rabbit on it and a short khaki skirt. She had on pink sandals that raised in the heel, and it made her walk even more of a strut.

I knew it was wrong, but I felt really weird when I was around her. She was so cute and carefree, I wanted to be just like her. Actually, I wanted to BE her. But I couldn't let on. It would be really embarassing if Ben or anyone found out. So I just said

"God, you're such a little brat!" and moved out of her way.

I was shaken out of my thoughts by the church leader.

"We're leaving, everybody!" He yelled.

The car ride to Hot Springs was the same as all the car rides are when we go on these church functions. I've got my headphones on most of the time, only taking them off to crack the occasional joke with Ben. When we finally arrive, It's pretty late. The church leaders check us in to the hotel we're staying in. Me and Ben stayed up for a while and played poker for our pocket change, and by the time I had won all his change we heard a knock on the door. It was one of the other boys with our church group.

"Dude, there's a pool out here, you wanna come?" he said.

"Sure." I said, "You coming, Ben?" I said.

"No, that's cool. I'm gonna watch t.v." he said.

As I was walking to the pool, Ashley came out of her door wearing her swimsuit. It was a two piece and I could see her cute butt better than ever. It was almost too much for me. I spent the entire swim wearing goggles and surrupticiously swimming by and looking at her cute smooth legs.

Finally, I got tired of swimming and went back up to my room. Ben was already asleep, so I went to sleep too. All I could think of was Ashley. If I had the room to myself, I could have masturbated to just the thought of her. Instead, I just went to sleep.

I woke up early, as usual. As I lay in my bed trying to will myself up, I noticed that my body felt different. The first think I noticed was my hair. I had the cover over my head, so I couldn't see my body, but my hair felt different. When I got up to take a look I felt my boxers fall off of me. They were way to big! I ran to the mirror and screamed. I was a girl! My penis was gone! I was small. I looked like....I looked like Ashley. The only difference was our hair. Ashley had dirty blonde hair and now I had brunette hair. It was the same hairstyle as Ashley's!

"What the hell?!" I yelled.

This woke Ben up. He sat up and rubbed his eyes. I caught eyes with him and I blushed. I don't know why I blushed. I'm sure it wouldn't have been my normal reaction, but the fact that I was not in my body made me blush. My next instinct reaction was to grab cover. Normally I would have covered up only my penis and my butt, but instead I covered up my chest, just like a girl would.

"Who are you?" Said Ben, alarmed.

"I'm Michael!" I screamed.

"You're not Michael." he said.

"Yes I am! I don't know what happened, but now I look like this!" I said and looked down behind the cover. If I wasn't so shocked, it would have felt invigorating to be standing there completely naked, but with nothing in between my legs, but at this moment all I could think of was how this happened.

"Alright, if you're Michael, what's the name of our church?" he said.

"St. Agnes!" I screamed.

He looked at me sideways for a short while and finally said, "Michael?"

"Yeah, it's me." I said, but even I was unsure. This voice wasn't mine. This body wasn't mine.

Finally, Ben straightened up and said, "Well, I guess we're gonna have to find you some clothes to wear."
