“Hey Carly; your regulars are here” Cassidy Banks said to her fellow waitress.

Carly Gianapolis looked up to see the friendly couple that had become her favorite table to wait on during her shift at Murphy’s Diner. Tim and Jennifer Green came in about twice a week and Carly had waited on them just about every time for the last six months.

Carly watched them as they crossed the floor and slid into their seats at their favorite booth. Both of them were still dressed up from their days at work, with Tim in an open collared dress shirt and Jennifer in a maroon blouse, black skirt and black heels.

Over the past six months of chit chatting with them, Carly had discovered that they were both lawyers; he was a divorce attorney and she worked in bankruptcy and they had an apartment just down the block from the Diner. They had met in law school and had been married two years. They enjoyed their short walks down to the corner for dinner; it was a way to decompress after the work day.

Carly gave them about a minute before she headed to their table with a smile on her face. “Hey guys…can I start you off with your usual drinks?”

Tim looked up and smiled “Good Evening Carly, how are you doing?”

“I’m good…thanks; how are you two tonight?” Carly replied.

“Doing pretty good” Tim responded quickly. “How was your Econ test today?”

Carly was surprised and pleased that Tim remembered her mentioning that she had a test in her Freshman Economics class. Carly was in her first semester of college and was having the usual difficulty in adjusting to the college work load. “I think I did okay on it…I hope I did okay on it”

“I’m sure you did fine” Tim responded reassuringly “You’re a smart girl…I can tell you’ll do just fine in college once you get your bearings”

Carly smiled and glanced down at the floor. She had a narrow, closed mouthed smile that seemed to come to her reluctantly at times when she got nervous.

“But yeah…I’ll take a Coke” Tim said as he looked across the table to his wife.

Carly looked to Jennifer and widened her eyes in anticipation of her order “Diet Coke please” was all she said.

“I’ll be right back with those” Carly replied as she turned on her heel.

Carly blushed slightly as she went to the drink fountain and grabbed two glasses. Cassidy came over to refill a couple for her table and teased Carly for a moment “You’ve got a crush on him don’t you?”

“Shut up” Carly said with a smile as she left with her drinks.

After they placed their orders and Carly had them into the kitchen, she went to the area at the side where all the waitresses hung out.

She thought about what Cassidy had said and while she did think that Tim seemed to be an awesome guy, it was Jennifer that she really admired. She was so much further down the road that Carly wanted to travel. She was married and successful and she obviously had an awesome collection of shoes. “I wish I could switch places with her” she thought to herself. “And besides…it would be fun to be a blonde while I’m at it” she thought with a laugh as she adjusted her ponytail, tugging and pulling on her thick long black hair.

Carly looked at the couple as they talked back and forth while they waited for their food. Jennifer Green was really animated telling her story. Her short straight blonde hair bobbed up and down and she flashed her wide, toothy smile often and freely.

Carly smiled wistfully at the couple and decided to head to the restroom while she had a free minute before their orders came up.

As Jennifer finished her story about her client earlier that day, she laughed and excused herself “I’ll be right back Honey” she said as she patted the table and grabbed her purse and headed for the restroom.

Carly was at the sink, just finishing washing her hands when the door opened and Jennifer walked in. “Oh Hi” Carly said, flicking water off her hands as she leaned for the paper towels.

“Hi Carly” Jennifer said.

Carly smiled and saw that they were about the same height as they stood directly in front of each other, but it also dawned on her that while she was wearing a pair of black flats, Jennifer was in heels. “Can I ask you a quick question?”

“Sure” Jennifer responded as she opened her purse at the sink.

“Well…I’d really like to go to law school someday…and I was wondering if you could give me some advice?”

Jennifer sighed slightly and said “Well, you have to keep your grades up and I’d recommend a lot of English classes to go along with whatever major you decide on. But I’d also say that you should relax and enjoy college life for what it can offer too. Don’t get so tied up in always looking so far into the future.”

Carly nodded “It’s just that I look at someone like you; I mean you’ve got it all: Husband…successful career and it all just seems so out of my reach”

“Look, you’re what 18…19 years old”

“18” Carly replied quickly.

Jennifer patted her shoulder. “You’re just a kid and you’ve got plenty of time ahead of you. You get to make all those decisions and choices; you should be looking forward to those. I remember when I was 18…10 long years ago since I’m so ancient” Jennifer said with a smile. “I was working at a Best Buy during my freshman year of college”.

Carly nodded “I’m sorry that I bugged you”

“You didn’t bug me: Don’t worry about it…you’re fine” Jennifer reassured her.

Carly finished drying her hands and thought once more “I wish I could switch places with her…she’s got so much more going for her than I do”

As she finished her thought and turned back around to face Jennifer, she felt a cough coming on suddenly. As she cleared her throat, she realized that Jennifer had coughed at the same time. “Jinx” she said quietly, almost to herself.

“I was thinking the same thing” Jennifer replied as she turned to the mirror. “Huh…that’s weird” Jennifer said as she leaned closer to the mirror with a confused look on her face.

“What’s weird?” Carly asked innocently enough.

“Look at this” Jennifer said as she reached up to her hair. Her fingers now closed over a strand of long black hair that was coming down next to her right ear.

Carly’s mouth opened in surprise. It looked like the hair strand was growing as Jennifer held onto it.

“What is up with this?” Jennifer said confused. As she looked in the mirror she said “There goes another one”

Sure enough, another hair had turned black and was beginning to grow out longer, then another and another. “What’s happening to my hair” Jennifer asked in genuine fear.

“I…uh…I don’t know” Carly said as she took a step backward. As she did, she backed up to the next sink over. Carly turned to the mirror over the sink and took a sharp breath in.

At hearing the gasp, Jennifer turned and saw that it wasn’t just her hair that was acting up; Carly’s hair was steadily turning golden blonde.

Carly’s hands shot up to her hair. She ran her fingers through it quickly and desperately; it was getting shorter and thinner and turning blonde strand by strand. Its pace was quickening as was Jennifer’s in its changing to long thick and black.

“What the hell is happening to us?” Jennifer asked with panic in her voice. Her hair had previously stopped at her collar but was now down over her back and chest. They both had a sneaking suspicion of what was actually occurring, but neither of them wanted to voice it yet.

“Um” Carly said. Panic and guilt settled into her knowing of what she had been thinking and wishing to herself just seconds ago and now it appeared that she had Jennifer’s short blonde hair now and Jennifer had her long black hair.

Before Carly could say anything else, Jennifer bent down and took off her shoe saying “My shoes are pinching me so bad I can’t stand it. As she reached down for them, her now long hair fell forward over her face. She struggled briefly to even get her shoes off, they had grown so tight on her feet suddenly that she had to wiggle them and give the heel a tug to get them off. “Ah” she said quickly, jumping up and back a bit at the sight of her bare feet.

“My…my feet; they don’t look…” she trailed off confused as she struggled to push her hair out of her face. “Why are my feet…oh my God…look at that!”

Carly leaned over, feeling her short blonde hair brush gently at her cheeks. She stared at Jennifer’s pointed toes that were aimed at her. They both watched as Jennifer’s now wider foot began to darken in its skin tone. It went from quite pale to a more olive color. Her toes began to reshape themselves then. Her toes had been very short but they were changing shape and growing longer and thinner. Her big toes changed and grew larger and her nails began to reshape themselves in conjunction with her toes. Her previously unadorned nails grew wider and longer and a blue polish appeared on them.

“Oh my God Carly…those aren’t my feet! Why did my feet just change shape? What is going on here?”

“Uh” Carly said shyly as she bit her bottom lip. Carly looked down at her own feet and slipped them out of her very broken in black flats. As she did, they both saw that all four of their feet matched up perfectly, but only for a second.

Carly’s feet began to get smaller and paler. Her toes shrank back becoming rather short and stubby. Her nails went from bright blue polish to pale and opaque in the blink of an eye as her nails rearranged into their new shape. Carly wiggled her toes in amazement and wonder having just watched them change before her eyes. “Those aren’t my feet” she said quietly.

“No: they’re mine” Jennifer said in a serious tone.

The two women looked at each other now, fear and confusion flooding over them.

“What are we going to do?” Jennifer said. “Why are we turning into each other?”

“I don’t know” Carly lied, afraid to admit she had been wishing to switch places with Jennifer.

Both of them had exposed legs as Jennifer was wearing a knee length black skirt and Carly had on a pair of khaki shorts. Their attention was brought to their legs as both of them felt a distinct tugging sensation. Carly felt her legs being pulled down toward the floor; her legs were shrinking and getting smaller. She looked down and saw her lower legs compress and begin to lighten in color, losing any tan tone that she had and becoming paler.

Carly shot a quick glance over at Jennifer and noticed her legs getting darker and lengthening beneath the skirt hem. She watched with some degree of fascination as Jennifer’s knees reshaped and turned into hers.

Jennifer watched her calves change and despite some degree of fear, she found herself lifting up her skirt to watch as the changes crept up her thighs. Her thighs slimmed some, becoming long and lithe and tan but utterly unfamiliar to her. Jennifer’s eyes darted back and forth from her legs to Carly’s legs. Carly’s legs now looked like what she was used to seeing. Her short shorts didn’t hide Jennifer’s pale round thighs.

“Uh” Jennifer said as her hands let go of the skirt and swung around to her rear as she felt it begin to shift. “Oh No” Jennifer said “Why can’t this stop?” she asked in frustration. “I don’t want to change places; I don’t want to be somebody else” Her ass began to change and pull upward taking her hips in a bit as well.

Carly looked down at her new legs and thought “It’s working…my wish is coming true! I’m going to be Jennifer Green…it’s what I wanted but how is it even possible” Her stomach fluttered at the possibilities and life she would have in this body that was quickly becoming hers. She felt her shorts dropping slightly as her hips shifted outward and her ass filled out a bit fuller than before.

Carly felt a slight itch and could tell that her panties had shifted as even her vagina changed into Jennifer’s. She blushed at the thought of having another woman’s most personal part become hers and vice versa. She looked over to Jennifer and could tell she was thinking the same thing as her eyes widened and she swallowed hard as she patted the front of her skirt.

“I’m really going to be you” Jennifer said. “I’m already more you than me” she said as she untucked her blouse and lifted it revealing her stomach as it changed into Carly’s. “Shit…I know I’m you from the waist down. This is freaking me out…I’m going to have your boobs!”

Carly had no idea what to say and that was exactly how she put it “I don’t know what to say, I don’t know what to do” she admitted “I’m becoming you” she added as the butterflies in her stomach matched up with actual changes in her stomach.

Standing barefoot across from each other, Carly realized that as the changes worked their way up their backs and chests that Jennifer was now taller than her. “How tall are you?” she asked.

“Uh…5’4” Jennifer replied “But I guess I’m not anymore”

“Yeah…I was 5’8” so now I guess you’re 5’8” Carly said looking up slightly.

“Oh” Jennifer said as her chin dipped to her chest. Her long hair fell forward again and hung down. She quickly unbuttoned her blouse as she felt movement in her chest. Her breasts were beginning to get smaller. Jennifer was a 38C but was going down to a 34B.

She watched as her skin continued to darken while they were still at full size, but then, she felt her flesh separate from the fabric of her bra as her breasts lost mass. Her nipples became visible but they had also changed in appearance with her areolas now much darker and larger. Her breasts were perkier and firmer than before but her bra no longer fit as she became Carly more and more.

Carly too unbuttoned her black uniform shirt and saw that her black bra was getting tighter. Her breasts were growing. They were getting pinched a bit and were pressed against the front until just a bit of her very pink areolas were coming out of the top.
With a shoulder shrug and a reach up behind her, Carly unhooked her bra and felt immediate relief as her breast hung free against the unfastened bra.

Their arms and shoulders changed next and slight ripples could be seen in the outlines of their long sleeved shirts as they lost their own arms and gained the others.

Jennifer slowly lifted her hands up from her sides and she held them out in front of her face. She splayed her fingers out. The first thing she noticed was the most disturbing to her “Where’s my ring?” She asked “Where’s my god damned wedding ring?” She wiggled her fingers and now saw only a silver ring on the middle finger of her right hand while her left hand was bare.

“Um” Carly guiltily lifted her left hand up; there on her ring finger was Jennifer’s gold band “I’m sorry…I didn’t mean for it to appear on me” she said.

Jennifer closed her eyes slowly but firmly and dipped her head in realization; her life was not her own anymore.

Jennifer opened her eyes and saw the darker skin tone reach the backs of her hands and down to the ends of her fingers. Her fingers began to lengthen and become slimmer. Her nails were done in a classic French manicure but as she watched, the white tips and clear coat began to brighten to a very bright orange that was a bit flecked and peeled in places. Her nails shifted, becoming wider to match her longer fingers and Jennifer balled up her hands into fists of frustration, feeling her nails dig in to the palms of her new hands.

Carly still wiggled her left hand, marveling at the wedding band that was now hers as the fingers around it began to change. Carly’s fingers pulled back and her hands became smaller and more delicate. Her bright orange nail polish turned clear on the bottom and topped off in white French tips. Any indication of her previous nervous habit of chewing at her nails was gone with gaining Jennifer’s fingers and hands and nails.

“I just got my nails done yesterday” Jennifer stated. “I always loved to have my nails done…” she added as she turned her new fingers over and back before her, taking in the gaudy shade of orange and their rough state from waiting tables.

Jennifer used those new hands to brush her long thick black hair back one more time, trying to get used to this new mane she possessed. Her short, professional bob was gone, the first thing that had changed but now she felt a tingling in her face that could only mean that it was about to change as well.

Carly turned to the bathroom mirror that was before her. She placed her now short blonde hair behind her ears and watched as her ears changed shape. Her bottom lobe came inward and attached itself directly as her skin tone lightened across her face. Her olive complexion was gone; replaced by Jennifer’s paler skin.

Jennifer meanwhile had also turned to face the mirror in front of her. Her face was now outlined by her thick hair but she also brushed it back to watch her ears change shape as she gained a distinct bottom lobe. She felt her jawline and chin begin to shift as her skin darkened to Carly’s olive color.

Jennifer’s face seemed elongate slightly as her jaw shifted and her chin became rounder. She watched as her lips puffed up fuller but her mouth also seemed to get smaller in width. After licking her lips and pursing them, she brought her teeth together and parted her lips. Her teeth were changing shape now. It was an odd sensation in her mouth as they shifted into place and grew larger and actually straightened a bit as well as whitened. She brought them together in a quick snap, hearing the hollow clack inside her head.

Jennifer thought she looked a bit odd as the last of her own features held out on her ever changing face. Her forehead lowered and became narrower and her eyebrows darkened and elongated.

Carly watched as her jawline became more compact and her chin came to more of a point. It wasn’t what she was used to, but it worked as Jennifer. Her lips thinned and became wider. Carly was familiar with Jennifer’s wide smile but she never thought it would actually be hers. Her mouth opened in anticipation of the final changes she now felt her teeth shift as they became smaller as Jennifer’s teeth.

Carly swallowed and noticed that even the taste inside her mouth was different now. She ran her tongue between her teeth and felt the scraping sensation. She ran her tongue over her upper front teeth becoming familiar with their shape.

With her blonde bangs covering her forehead she felt more than saw her forehead change shape but she gave her bangs a quick swipe to see her lighter and thinner eyebrows.

Carly’s eyes were the next to change and they flashed from her deep brown into Jennifer’s light blue in a single blink. Her eyes narrowed a bit to fit her face and she knew that they would crinkle at the corners whenever she flashed a smile.

Carly saw her cheeks rise up and become rounder as she was almost completely Jennifer now. Her cheeks filled in as her nose began to change. It shrank smaller, fitting her face better and with a final motion, the end of her nose upturned slightly completing her physical transformation into Jennifer Green.

Jennifer’s eyes widened and her lashes thickened and lengthened bringing the entire focus of her face into her eyes that changed from light blue into a deep dark brown complementing her olive skin. Her cheeks became sleeker and she lost her dimples as her features became Carly’s. Finally, Jennifer’s nose broadened across the bridge and became longer and straighter and as a final act, the slight upturn that had always been the hallmark of her nose, straightened out. Jennifer Green now looked like Carly Gianapolis.
 
Jennifer gripped the sink as the changes finished up before she let go and turned to face her former body. The shock of seeing Carly in her body was almost as bad as watching each part of her body change. Her eyes darted up and down, taking in the sight of the body that had been hers but was now on someone else. The fact that she was looking out from different eyes hadn’t even hit her yet, just that this was her a few feet away from her and yet not her at all.

“Oh…my…God” she said slowly while in her utter shock. The fact that it came out in Carly’s voice failed to register with her. “You’re me” Jennifer continued to look her up and down.

Carly nervously shifted her weight back and forth; her bare feet sticking slightly to the linoleum floor. “I’m you…and you’re me” she said with Jennifer’s voice emanating from within her. “I don’t know what just happened to us, but, you definitely look like me now” Carly added with a wave of her hand.

Jennifer looked back down. She took in her larger feet and darker legs beneath her black skirt. She waved her hands up and down and patted her stomach underneath her maroon blouse before she ran her fingers through her thick hair “This can’t be happening to me” she said.

“It just did happen to both of us…I’m you” Carly said. She began to unbutton the rest of her black shirt. “We have to switch clothes with each other. I can’t be dressed like this anymore”

“What? I’m not giving you my clothes” Jennifer said as she wrapped her arms across her chest.

“Yours don’t fit you anymore anyway and if anyone comes in here and sees us like this, there’ll just be more questions than answers” Carly said. “Look; there really can’t be any secrets between the two of us at this point and there’s no need to get possessive now; I mean I have your body”

Jennifer sighed but began to unbutton her blouse as well. She took it off and laid it over the corner of the sink while she unzipped her skirt. She stepped out of it and took in the sight of more and more of her new body. She hesitated briefly as she unhooked her ill-fitting bra and stood bare chested in the restroom. She pulled out the waistband of her panties and took a peek before she began to work them down and step out of them.

Carly had taken off her black shirt and easily slid off the already unhooked bra. She took off her shorts and panties together in a single motion and handed them to Jennifer. Carly then took Jennifer’s black panties and stepped into them and quickly pulled them up, feeling them snugly take hold of her hips and ass. She patted the front still a bit freaked out by possessing another woman’s vagina. She stepped into the black skirt and with a wiggle of her hips, ass and thighs; she got the skirt into place and zipped it up.

Carly glanced down at her bigger breasts. Her nipples were smaller along with her areolas being much smaller and pinker in color. She gave the right one a poke before she put the black bra on. She slipped the maroon blouse on and hastily buttoned it up. Finally, she up righted Jennifer’s discarded heels. She placed her toes in the end and let her heel slide easily into the back as a perfect fit. She tucked in her shirt and straightened her hair and turned to Jennifer.

Jennifer had separated the nude panties from the khaki shorts and stepped into them. She pulled them up and gave the waistband a tug to adjust them over her new body. The khaki shorts rode very high on her thighs but she supposed that she pulled off the look given her 18 year old body. She gave her new smaller breasts another look as she wrapped the bra around them and adjusted them to fit.

Jennifer gave out another sigh and mumbled “What am I going to do?” as she buttoned up the black shirt and tucked it into her shorts before stepping easily into the black flats.

Jennifer looked over at Carly, now looking even more like she had when she walked in.
Carly looked at Jennifer and said in an authoritative tone “You are now Carly Gianapolis and I am now Jennifer Green”

“But…” Jennifer began to protest

“But nothing” Carly cut her off. “This may not make any sense but we have to go out there and act like nothing is wrong”

“But…” Jennifer was beginning to lose her composure. Physically changing into another person and now assuming their life was all crashing down on her. She was no longer Jennifer Green, 28 year old married attorney. Now she was Carly Gianapolis, 18 year old college freshman and waitress.

The old Carly picked up Jennifer’s purse and slung it over her shoulder.

It was then that the door opened. Cassidy stuck her head in and said “Did you fall in or something Carly? Your orders are up and Frank is getting pissed…get out here”

The new Carly looked nervously back and forth between Cassidy and her old self before she said “Yeah…I…uh…I’m coming”. With a glance over her shoulder, the new Carly stepped out of the restroom and went to the order counter.

“Jeez…what’re you doin in there Carly; your order for table 2 has been up and ready for like two full minutes…it’s gonna get cold” the cook Frank told her.

“Sorry…uh…sorry” she said as she picked up the two burgers and fry platters and carried them out of the kitchen.

As she came out, she saw the new Jennifer exit the restroom. New Jennifer gave old Jennifer a wink and a smile as she hurried past her and slid into the booth just ahead of their orders arriving.

Carly stopped at the table and looked at her husband. There were so many things that she wanted to blurt out and say at that moment but the only thing she managed was “Here’s your Bacon Cheeseburger” as she slid the plate in front of him “And here is your Mushroom and Swiss Burger”

“Thanks Carly” Tim said to his wife without a hint of recognition beyond talking to a familiar waitress. “Can I get a refill on my Coke?”

Carly’s hand shook slightly as she took the glass from the table.  She forced a narrow smile onto her lips “Sure; is there anything else you need right now” she asked.

“No…I think we’re all good here now” Jennifer responded with a wide toothy smile.

“Then I’ll be right back with your refill…enjoy” Carly said as she turned on her heel to refill Tim’s Coke.

As she walked back, her mind exploded in various thoughts “Why am I not fighting this!” she thought in desperation. “Why am I just going along with this?” “Why does this somehow feel like I know what I’m doing” she realized as she stuck the glass under the fountain, tilting it just enough to keep the foam to a minimum.

She walked back across the floor and delivered Tim’s drink to him. He smiled but never fully looked up as he was engrossed in conversation with Jennifer; his wife.

She heard Frank call out her name again and she went back to fill a tray with the orders from her other table. As she carried the tray above her shoulder like a pro, she knew what the orders were and who they were going to. “Huh” she thought “Maybe this will be easier than I thought”

It was a slow night and she only had three tables at the time so Carly took a seat in the waitress area. She lifted her legs up and pointed her toes to stretch her aching calves. “I can’t believe I still have to finish that paper for English for tomorrow” she thought before she caught herself quite in shock.

“Why do I think I’m back in college? I’m not really Carly…I’m not really a college freshman…Am I? No, I’m Jennifer Green, I’m an attorney; specializing in bankruptcy…I’m…shit! I forget how old I’m supposed to be…think Carly…I mean think Jennifer…think….”

“Hey Carly…you got a new table” Cassidy called out to her.

“I’m coming” she said as she straightened out her shorts and stood up. She grabbed her note pad and pen and headed to the table with a smile.

Jennifer continued talking with her husband as they ate their burgers. More and more details seemed to filter in by the minute. It was like going to college and law school in the span of a half hour as Jennifer’s knowledge passed into her. They lingered and talked some more since it wasn’t busy and they didn’t have any other plans for the night.

When their waitress came and cleared their plates and dropped off the check, Jennifer smiled up at her from her seat “Thanks Carly” she said with a nod “My burger was awesome tonight”

“I’ll let the cook know…he appreciates a good compliment”

Tim reached for his wallet but Jennifer waved him off “I’ve got it” she said as she picked it up and slid out of the booth. Tim headed out as Jennifer took her bill up to the counter to pay.

Carly walked over to the cash register and gave Jennifer a smile
.
Jennifer smiled back and looked across at the dark haired and skinned waitress while handing her the bill and two twenties. The bill was only $16.50 but Jennifer said “Keep the rest…you earned it and every college girl I’ve ever known could always use a few extra bucks”

“Thanks” Carly replied generally happy with the generous tip. She watched Jennifer walk out, elegant as always in her expensive heels, tailored skirt and manicured nails and thought “I wish I could be like her some day”
