Dana fell into conversations with everyone like it had always been her life. Justin opened up more as the evening went along and he realized his Mom wasn’t going to yell at him. Katie and Sophie talked about their days and she was just glad everyone’s homework was finished.

“At least everyone is helping clean up” she thought as the kids helped clear the table and put away the leftovers. She made a lunch for Sophie but her other two kids made their own as she signed off on homework agendas.

Justin and Mike were watching a college football game and as much as she wanted to sit down and watch it with them, she instead went off and made sure Sophie got ready for bed before talking with Katie about school.

At 12, Katie was in the midst of the real mean girl phase of school. She was getting picked on for liking music that wasn’t from Taylor Swift or Justin Bieber. Dana’s heart broke for her daughter and she talked her up, telling her to like what she liked and not let anyone else dictate her personality. “No one can tell you what to like or not; just because your tastes have matured more than theirs…well that’s their loss”

Katie gave her a smile and a shy “thanks” but no hug; Dana knew she wasn’t going to do that, even in private.

Dana wandered to her bedroom. She stepped in, closed the door and tip toed before realizing how ridiculous she looked tip toeing around her own house. “This is yours now” she said to herself finally finding herself alone for the first time. “Your room, your bed, your clothes, your body…” she looked around before finally looking down at herself again.

Dana stuck her right foot out and held it suspended out in front of her “Hmm” she sighed out of her nose. She put her foot back down and let her eyes trace back up her legs. She put her hands on her round and soft thighs before she got a nervous look on her face. She smiled self-consciously as she pulled her shorts and panties out.

Her jaw still dropped at the sight of her body and the lack of something sticking out down there “It’s really gone” she thought as she ran a hand over and through the soft reddish brown hairs before probing gently around the folds of skin and opening.

Her index and middle finger slipped easily inside. A sly smile crept across her lips as her eyes rolled back and fluttered “Wow…that’s different. Can’t wait to feel Mike inside there” but she could feel Mike inside there. The part of her mind that was slowly but steadily gaining traction knew exactly what sex with her husband felt like and how comforting it was.

A bit ashamed but not really, she turned to the large floor mirror in the corner “I love this type of mirror” she thought as she approached it. Swallowing, she lifted up her shirt and saw her soft belly and gave it a pinch “Who cares…you’re a Mom three times over” she told herself as she lifted the shirt higher revealing her bra. Pulling it down and shoving her boobs out, they flopped out of her bra and lay on top of it “My tits” she said succinctly.

Once again realizing how silly she was checking out her body, she ducked and dipped her breasts back into their home. But she did study what was now her face deeply and closely. She rubbed her fingers together as she looked before she brought her hands up. She ran her fingers through her shoulder length hair testing its softness and overall feel.

She saw a hair tie on the dresser and picking up, she grabbed enough hair to make a small ponytail and she twist the band around to hold it up and back. Now she could see her full forehead and she took in the few lines creasing across it. She ran her index fingers over her smooth and trimmed eyebrows and then down around her eyes.

Her hazel eyes were kind of small but then so were all of her features. When she smiled, the right side of her face and mouth went up first. After tracing the few faint lines at the corners of her eyes, she gave her very small nose a pinch across the bridge which lifted up her bronze metal framed glasses. Running her fingers down her nose to squeeze her nostrils she then flared them out and crinkled up her face.

Dana put her hands up and pressed down on her round and full cheeks taking in how soft they were while memorizing the few darker spots on her cheeks.

She ran her tongue over her teeth and bared them for the mirror as well before clicking them and running her tongue back to her back molars.

She pulled her chin back as far as she could until it disappeared into her neck which made her laugh again before she examined her ears.

Tiny and small with two sets of gold hoops in them, the pair on the inside were slightly larger than the ones on the outside. There was a bathroom attached to their room and Dana went in. Two toothbrushes sat in a holder, she picked up the pink and white one knowing it had to be hers. Looking into a different mirror, she began to brush her teeth.

Just the feel on the bristles along her teeth, gums and tongue made her comfortable. “This wasn’t your toothbrush this morning” she thought to herself “But it is now…this was in someone else’s mouth this morning but now that it’s your mouth, I guess it’s fine”

She also knew what her body was telling her to do next “Welcome to the world of always having to sit down to pee” she told herself as she took a seat and let it go. She shivered slightly and wiped, her merging mind telling her that it was what she had always done.

Dana went back into the room, she bounced on the end of the King sized bed twice before heading to the closet. She saw slacks and blouses for the most part hanging up “I’ll buy her more dresses” she thought. “This wardrobe is way too limited” She dug a little further back and found a few dresses and skirts along with sheer sleeved shirts and light sweaters “Better” she thought.

She got down on her knees and began to go through the shoes. Sneakers, flip flops and fairly clunky shoes were in the front “Don’t tell me that these are what she was wearing to work all the time; where’s anything stylish?”

Digging further in “Ah-ha” she said finding shoes more interesting to the new Dana “the old Dana may have not cared and been all about comfort but the new Dana wants some style”

She pulled out a pair of nude heels, a pair of black closed toed heels, a pair of black peep toe heels, a pair of wedge heeled sandals, and a pair of blue heels that didn’t look like they had been worn in quite a while “Old bridesmaid shoes” her mind told her.

She also found brown and black flats and a dusty pair of flat strappy sandals way in the back “Those hurt my feet” she remembered.

Dana picked up the peep toed ones and carried them to the bed. Perched on the edge, she brought her right foot up and crossing her leg in a very unladylike way, slid it into the shoe and then put her left one in as the shoe still sat on the ground.

Dana flexed her toes and spread out her feet feeling the give of the shoes; she stood up in them and noticed the extra height it gave her while feeling the slight pull along the muscles on the bottoms of her feet.

She walked to the mirror and stood sideways looking at how her feet looked in the heels. She was smiling and she did a little hip and butt wiggling dance of approval.

Dana made her way back to the bed and sat back down. She bent over and ran her fingers over the slick surface of her exposed toenails. That was when the bedroom door opened.

Mike came in and closed the door behind him “Well now, I’ve always told you I don’t need you to dress up for me to get me in the mood but I won’t say no to you in heels”

Dana blushed and sat up “Let’s flirt” her mind told her. “I know you like me in shoes like this; maybe I’ll wear them more often” she said to him.

“Well I’d like that but you always complain about your feet hurting after a day standing in them” Mike said coming closer. He sat on the side of the bed and Dana scooted back.

Mike reached over and slipped her feet out of the heels and began to massage her feet.

“Oh My God that feels so good” she purred closing her eyes as her muscles responded and relaxed. He bent her toes back and rubbed and pressed the soles of her feet before he rubbed her heels and then along the tops before going back to her toes.

“I had no idea this could feel this good!” she thought. She looked over and saw the unmistakable sign of her husband getting an erection from giving her a foot massage “the power of the female body” she thought.

“Are the kids asleep?” she whispered.

“Close enough” Mike whispered back. “Justin’s up...”

“But he’s on the other side of the house so who cares” she responded smiling.

Mike began to rub her legs, working his way up her calves and then kneading and squeezing her thighs before his hands slipped under her, lifted her up and he grabbed her ass.

Dana put her head back as he climbed closer and was soon in front of her. She leaned forward and met his lips with hers, her tongue flicking out and flittering about in a dance with his.

Josh pulled into the driveway of what was now his house. He saw his wife’s car in the drive but more importantly, he saw her sitting in the chair by the front window.

He came in through the side door like always and kicked off his shoes by the door. He could hear her padding her way through the house toward him and when she came into view in the doorway to the kitchen, he smiled broadly “Hey Honey” she said to him in a kind of sleepy sounding voice.

“Hey Liv; how was your day?” he asked.

“Fine” she waved her hand and yawned “Just another day at work; how was yours?”

“Awesome” he replied to her.

 Olivia raised her eyebrows “Really? What made it so good?”

Josh smirked “I just had a good day” he walked over to her and wrapped his arms around her waist. “She’s so small! She’s tiny to me; I’m like a foot taller than her and I must weigh 100 pounds more than her” He bent down as she rose up and their lips met. “I kissed a girl and I liked it” ran through his head and he chuckled.

“What’s so funny?” she asked leaning against the doorframe.

He took in his wife standing there; her right foot cocked up with her heel resting against her left calf. Her long thin legs coming up and ending in a pair of tight white cotton shorts. Her trim and flat stomach and small perky breasts all encased in a soft powder blue V-neck shirt. Her slightly pouty lips and upturned nose, her dark brown eyes and thick dark brown hair all coming together to turn him on. 

“Nothing…I told you, I’m just in a good mood” he laughed but also cocked his head and leaned forward for another kiss. This time, he made sure it lasted longer. He brought his hand up and placed it in his wife’s soft hair and made sure her lips parted enough to make his intention known. Even with his eyes closed he could tell she was smiling as they kissed.

“What’s gotten into you?” she cooed when she finally broke away. Josh ran his hand down over her shoulders and down the middle of her chest, tugging her top down slightly. He smiled and took her hand and guided it to his crotch where she could feel his huge erection. “Ooo…I like the feel of that, but don’t you want to get something to eat first?”

Josh raised his eyebrows and whispered “The only thing I can even think about eating right now is you”

“Oh” Olivia answered with a smile “If you insist…”

Josh followed her down the hall, he pinched at her ass and they laughed and jumped their way into their bedroom “I am so turned on by another woman right now” flashed into his mind “But I’m no longer a woman at all” he thought too. “I’ve always wanted to know how this feels”

Once inside their room, Olivia spun around and faced him and lifted off her top. Her nipples were erect on her small pert breasts “Mine were bigger but hers are nice; that’s for damn sure” he thought. “For having had all these parts myself for 42 years, I sure am excited to see them on someone else undressing before me”

Olivia gave a quick hip wiggle and shimmy as she took down her shorts. “Sweet baby Jesus” ran through Josh’s mind and his stomach lifted. It almost felt like his jaw was floating her was so worked up all of a sudden “I hope I can last” he thought in the way a true man does.

“What are you still doing wearing clothes over there” Liv asked him.

Josh smirked and took off his shirt. Olivia smiled and licked her lips as she seductively walked to him. He kicked off his socks and undid his shorts releasing them to the ground as she arrived in time to take his cock in her hands and give it a quick rub.

Josh put his hands on her hips and she swayed them for him as she closed her eyes “I’m as nervous as I’ve ever been” he realized as he leaned forward and kissed her on the neck and brought his hands up to caress her breasts.

He felt her hands run over his stomach and up through his chest hair where she pinched his nipple “Ow” he let out to her giggle. “That sure doesn’t feel the same…that just hurt with no good vibrations at all” he thought.

“Big baby” she teased him “Does big baby need to suck” she lifted up her breast to him and with a smile, Josh bent forward and took his wife’s breast into his mouth. He tried to open up as wide as he could to fit the entire left breast in his mouth which made her laugh and playfully slap at his shoulder before he pulled back and licked her nipple in circles before holding it gently between his teeth. His hands kept rubbing around her ass and thighs before she laid back on the bed on her back.

Josh immediately followed her crawling on his knees as she scooted back to prop up her head on the pillows. “I’ve been waiting to taste her…” he thought as he put his hands on her knees and spread her legs apart.

Josh wrapped his hands around the outsides of her thighs and pulled in close and tight. He could smell her; an intoxicating scent that was making his mouth water and he sensed her body twitching in anticipation just before he let his tongue go to work.

“Mmm” she purred out as squirmed her hips slightly to Josh’s further arousal. After a few trips up and down and around with his tongue, he moved slightly up and found her clitoris with his mouth and began to work as two fingers began to probe inside.

“Oh God that feels so good Josh…don’t stop” she told him initially but after another minute she added “I need you inside me”

In a single motion, Josh slid up and brought his knees in as her legs went up and he easily slid inside of her.

“Oh my God this is the greatest feeling I HAVE EVER EXPERIENCED!” his mind screamed at him as he began to thrust away. He ducked his chin so he could watch his glistening shaft work in and out as Olivia let her pleasure be known.

She took his face in her hands and kissed him deeply “I love it when you kiss me and I can taste it” she panted out.

Josh was trying to last as long as he could but the pressure building up in him was undeniable “I’m not going to last much longer” he admitted.

“That’s okay baby” she said and her hand went down and he could feel her masturbating in rhythm with him so they could orgasm together.

Josh’s body tensed and he felt his chest tighten as he exploded forth “Oh God” he let out. He was frozen, locked up as he shot out sperm for the first time. A smile crept across his lips and sweat beaded up on his forehead. He could still feel Olivia’s hand working but then it quit and she too locked up her muscles and he felt her clamp down on his penis and shudder.

A few more after shots came out of him before he began to feel himself going a bit limp. “Don’t come out yet” she pleaded with him “Stay in me a little bit longer”

Josh was still catching his breath “I’m going to do this every single day” he told himself “I swear that was better” As he finally did come out, he jumped aside and grabbed a towel from the bottom dresser drawer and slid it up under Olivia who was thrusting her hips up.

“Maybe this time” she said with a smile and Josh knew that they had been trying to get pregnant for the last few months.

“You never know” he responded as she headed to the bathroom. Out of sight of his wife, he mouthed “Wow!” to his reflection in the mirror.

Vibrations ran up and down Dana’s spine “I’m already feeling so much more! My entire body is tingling…this is so intense”

Mike took off his shirt and pants, quickly stripping down next to her “Undress me” she whispered to him.

“With pleasure” he responded and reached for the bottom of her simple t-shirt. Dana lifted her arms up and let him raise the shirt up and off of her before he next reached behind her back and undid her bra.

Dana smiled her crooked smile and put her arms forward as he guided her bra forward and off of her.

Judging by his erection, he wasn’t disappointed in her body “Wow…there’s a dude with a huge erection sitting inches away from me and all I can think about is getting it inside me and not running away screaming; simply confirms that this is the weirdest day in my life” She giggled as she lifted her hips and ass up as he took hold of her shorts and panties to pull them down and off of her legs.

Dana eased back down and put her feet up so he could clear her clothing, but instead of putting her feet simply back down, she instead clamped them around the shaft of his penis and began to play with him.

“Oh!” he responded surprised but not at all disappointed “Do you like this?” Dana asked demurely.

“I do; it’s something new for you but don’t stop” Mike responded as he sat back and let her stimulate him with her small feet.

Dana curled her toes and enjoyed the sensation of running her feet up and down “Hope I don’t have any rough patches” she said “Or would you rather I do this with my tiny little hands” she waggled her fingers at his smiling and satisfied face before she dipped her eyes closer and added “Or with my tongue”

“I don’t know what’s gotten into you tonight but frankly don’t ever change” Mike told her.

“Guess I’m better than she ever was” Dana thought to herself.

“But I know you wouldn’t want to skip out on your favorite part” Mike said sitting up and easing overtop of her.

Dana lay back, her knees parting instinctively as Mike went down on her with a smile on her face. He couldn’t see, but her eyes popped open in rapturous joy when he began to orally pleasure her “This is the most amazing feeling I’ve ever had in my life…Don’t ever stop!” rang through her head.

The first time, his mouth hit her clitoris, her legs sprung inward and her thighs bounced off his ears “Oh God” she moaned in pleasure. Dana reached down and dug her fingers into Mike’s hair, gently pushing and holding his face down “Don’t stop” she purred.

Her hips and ass began to move back and forth without her even realizing it as she matched his rhythm, His hands massaged her outer thighs before sliding down and squeezing her ass cheeks repeatedly as his tongue and mouth never stopped.

In a single fluid motion he sprang up and slid forward and the next thing Dana knew, he was inside her. “Oh God I’m getting fucked and it feels so good” she realized. “I had no idea”

Her toes curled, her fingers splayed out as a new but distinct pressure built up inside her like a wave about to crash “What do I do?” she panicked briefly before repeating “Don’t stop”

They were both breathing hard and Dana could feel sweat break out all over her body and as her hands ran over Mike’s back she knew he was getting a good workout too. She bit her lip to keep from screaming as her body began to lift up and all her muscles began to move on their own. “Oh God!” she said breathily as she gritted her teeth and experienced her first female orgasm. Her muscles clenched down and she felt them squeeze her husband’s penis as he still moved back and forth which only sent more tingles running up and down her spine.

“My fingers are numb” she thought as her body and orgasm just kept coming unlike the ones she knew as a guy which while intense, were much shorter in length and reach as her whole body now felt in on the experience.

The next sensation she felt was warmth inside her as her husband went off. She squinted her eyes at the feeling but still smiled as it actually felt good to her she realized.

Mike seemed to decompress on top of her as he lay down on her. She finally let her legs stretch out and she relaxed too. “God I love you” she told him “Thanks honey”

Mike smiled as he caught his breath and sighed “No problem…love you too”

She rose up enough to put her forehead against his and kissed him. He grabbed his discarded boxer shorts and slid them under them so no one would have to sleep in the wet spot tonight.

Mike went to the bathroom and Dana lay still, her muscles and body still flexing at times and with one particular push, she felt most of what he had put in her come oozing back out. Dana used the boxers to clean up and went to the bathroom the pee the rest out of her. She knew Mike had a vasectomy after Sophie so she wasn’t worried about that; she just knew it was better to clean herself out after she was done. “Thanks for the tip Dana mind” she told herself.

They chatted about plans for the weekend and about Justin’s game tomorrow night as Mike picked out a new pair of boxers and Dana found some panties and a nightshirt to sleep in. Mike was one who had to have a TV playing in the background and she knew it wouldn’t bother her but as they lay spooning in bed, his arms draped over her small and content body, Dana had no choice but to reflect on what an outrageous day she had just been through.

Laying in the dark with ESPN playing quietly a few feet away, she stared straight ahead at the wall. A picture of her on her wedding day was hung there that kept her attention as she thought.

“My hair was longer and I was skinnier back then…my chin also stuck out more” she assessed from her portrait when she was a 25 year old. She closed her eyes and concentrated on seeing that wedding take place. It played before her with some gaps but there was enough there to make her feel like she really had experienced it.

“Maybe in time I’ll forget ever being Josh Tompkins” she thought “But not yet. How did this happen? Why did this happen? How did I get here? Here! I’m a 42 year old woman now when I was a 27 year old man this morning” She stared ahead “I’m not dreaming…I can’t be dreaming; I’m Dana Bradshaw now. I have her body, her life, her family and I’m steadily gaining her thoughts and memories more and more. I enjoyed having sex in her body and I have to assume that she’s having sex with my wife tonight too”

She half chuckled and could tell Mike was falling asleep behind her by his breathing “But it’s not my wife anymore; I have a husband now. I’m not trying to have kids, I already have three, which are already pretty special to me. I have to try to remember who I was but also accept who I now am. I don’t know how or why this happened but it did and I don’t know if it will ever change back”

Dana sighed “I don’t know if I want it to change back” she acknowledged.

It would be quite a while before she drifted off to sleep.

The alarm was going off before she knew it and a heavy hand slapped the lever down on the side. Dana shut her eyes tight and stretched her shoulders as there felt like there was a cramp in her left one. Hair tickled her cheeks and ears from her wild bed head as everything crashed in making her open her eyes and look around “I’m still a she” she deadpanned in her mind seeing her husband turning over and beginning to wake up as well.

He moved first and went straight to the bathroom where she had to listen to his stream of urine for a solid 45 seconds. She shook her head and swung her legs out from under the covers. She took in her short, smooth and stocky legs “Mermaid thighs” she dubbed her round mounds as she scoot off the bed feeling her feet hit the carpet.

Dana heard the water start up and she went and sat down. This was obviously a ritual that they two of them had danced for many, many years. Mike hopped in the shower as Dana brushed and flossed. She watched her face in the mirror and noted her flat hair, puffy eyes, red patches on her cheeks and the fact that she was obviously a drooler at night by the wet line at the corner of her mouth “Sexy” she told herself.

She was rinsing her mouth out when he finished up and grabbed his towel. No words needed to be spoken as she lifted her night shirt up and off and she unceremoniously freed her rear yanking down her panties.

Standing in the shower helped wake her up despite her yawns and burps. She went through the motions still somewhat titillated by having a female body to shower and yet somehow bored at the same time.

“I’m going to dress up today” she had already decided. She dried off and kept her hair wrapped up to dry longer as she put on a nude colored bra and panties. She had seen a long black skirt with white polka dots on it that she brought out and put on. It came to the top of her ankles and she nodded her approval.

Next, she pulled out a white blouse and fluffed it and buttoned it half way up before she went back into the bathroom.

She undid the towel from her hair and let it fall to her shoulders, she put some mousse in her hands and worked it into her hair before using a pick on it like she had done this for years.

She looked into the mirror and knew that the previous Dana had a disdain for makeup but this Dana wanted to embrace her feminine side more than that one. She found her makeup bag and put on lip liner and lipstick and used mascara on her eyelashes. She thought about using eye liner but thought it might be too much so she put on her glasses, sprayed on her perfume and fiddled with her hair some more.

Exiting her room, she grabbed the black peep toe heels and carried them down with her.

“What’s the occasion Mom” Katie asked her when she came into the kitchen.

“No occasion…I just wanted to look nice today” Dana responded.

“Well you’re scaring me” Justin said. “I don’t think I know who you are” he added with a laugh. “You only wear heels and makeup to weddings”

“Well not today” she said succinctly.

Even Sophie came in and to hold in her laughter “Oh My Gosh Mom, you look so different all dressed up”

“Can someone at least say that I look nice?” She asked sarcastically.

“You look beautiful Honey” Mike said kissing her cheek and heading out the door.

“You don’t count!” she said to her husband.

“You do look nice Mom, It’s just that you have us trained to your usual look” Katie said.

“What if stuff like this becomes my new usual look?”

“It’ll take a lot of time for us to adjust” Justin said.

“I know why you’re wearing heels” Katie said “You’re just looking for any reason to still look like you’re taller than me”

It was true that her 12 year old daughter had an inch in height on her but that wasn’t the reason; deep down, it really excited Dana that she was so short that even kids were bigger than her. She had really embraced the thought of being so small after being so large and intimidating all her life.

“Ha Ha Katie…I’m glad you’re taller than me and I hope Sophie gets there too; no one should have to go through life climbing on things to reach the top shelf” she said.

Kate was standing in front of her Mom and rising up on her tip toes to make her look even taller. Dana dropped her heels and slipped her feet in them and matched Katie in height “Ha!”

“We’ll see how long this lasts” Justin said “I’ve heard you complain all my life about how much wearing heels makes your feet hurt”

“Yeah, are you packing a backup pair of shoes just in case?” Katie asked.

“Nope; flying fast and blind with these babies today” She clicked her heels together.

“You wild woman” Katie laughed.

She gathered everyone into her car to take them to school. Luckily their town had built a school complex where there were three different buildings at the same location so she could drop off all the kids at once.

Never admitting it, driving in heels for the first time gave her some pause but the sight of her black painted toe nails peeking out of her shoes still gave her thrills.

After dropping the kids off, she swung through the faculty lot and saw her old car parked in her old spot. He would be teaching in her old body to her old students. She thought about her job now and saw her classroom clearly along with her lesson plans and her class lists. “See you tonight at the game Josh” she said to herself as she drove off.

Josh was in his classroom setting out his papers for the day when something told him to glance out the window. He saw his old car driving to the exit lane and pulling out “Yep…keep on driving” he said to the window.

Both Dana and Josh went about their days teaching their classes like they had always been there. Dana got quite a few comments about her outfit from both teachers and students. The great thing was, they were all positive.

She did notice something new about teaching in this particular body; even though she was old enough to be all her students Mother, she still caught the boys looking at her and she knew what was on their minds. “Hot for teacher” ran through her mind periodically throughout the day.

“I should be flattered I guess” she thought catching a boy’s eye dipping away from her and blushing. “If they think I’m attractive…”

There was no denying that her feet did hurt by the end of the day but it wasn’t as bad as she feared. She had went barefoot a good portion of her day, whenever she was sitting and during her free period. It was the email that popped up during the last class that ticked her off.

“Must attend meeting immediately after school” she mumbled to herself. They met in the hallway outside the main office after the students had left for the most part. A threat had been made against the school and since she was part of the Union leadership, she had to be there. The meeting took a lot longer than she would have hoped and when it was finally over, she hustled back to her room to grab her purse.

 “Shit! I don’t have time to go home and change clothes!” she realized. “I have to leave now just to make it to Adamsville in time. Guess I’m going overdressed” she smiled to herself and shook her head. “A Mom has to do what a Mom has to do for their babies”

She called Mike and made sure he was already home and had the girls ready to go “I’ll meet you there” she told him as she walked to her car.

Josh finished his day feeling better about teaching than ever. He enjoyed his new size and the extra sway it gave his authority. Just a steely glance could shut down any and all talking in his class. His thoughts never did drift to what the previous owner of this body was doing with his old body; instead, when his mind drifted, it was to the game tonight.

When he caught glimpses of himself in a mirror, it didn’t shock or surprise him “Deny you were ever Dana…you were never meant to be a woman” ran through his mind the one time he did think about it.

He headed to the gym immediately after the final bell and greeted his players as they arrived one by one.

When his backup Quarterback came in, he patted him on the shoulder and said “No worries man; go get ‘em tonight”

Justin smiled and mumbled “Thanks Coach” as he went by to gather up his stuff.

Josh straightened up and blinked a few times “He was my son; I gave birth to him” He turned and watched his back as he went to his locker. Josh searched his heart but couldn’t feel a twinge of motherly love in it for the boy he saw across the room. “Should I be sad? Worried? I don’t feel that kind of connection to him at all already. It’s only been a day but yet, it feels like a lifetime ago”

The next few players came by and interrupted his thought. “You ready!?” he yelled out to them.

“Gameday!” the one yelled back.

“That’s what I want to hear!” Josh responded clapping his hands.

Warm ups were well underway by the time Dana pulled into the crowded parking lot. She stood in line to buy her ticket before walking around the outer track to get to the visitors side.

She stopped when she saw her former self standing with his arms folded over his chest watching goal line drills. Her focus was lost though when she saw that her son was running the drill.

He rolled out and tossed a pass to the Tight End “Way to go Justin! Nice throw!” she yelled out as loud as she could. She watched Justin run two different plays to less success but she still clapped with all her heart.

She saw the Coach, her former self, shoot her a nasty glance out of the corner of his eye when she cheered Justin on.

Players rotated out and the two of them locked eyes. Dana read Josh’s lips as he said “Just another Mom in the stands”

Her stomach burned and her temper rose as her eyes narrowed into a scowl. Josh laughed at her attempt to look fierce and intimidating before he turned his back on her and went back to talking to his assistant coaches.

“What the hell is she wearing?” he thought though “I hated that skirt and those heels! She must be trying to pull something on me to make me think she’s screwing up my life, but I don’t even care so the joke’s on her”

Josh shook his head again when he glanced back and saw her still standing there, leaning over the top of the fence.

Dana stared at the field from her new vantage point “I’m not out there; I can’t say a thing about the players or the plays that are called”

She watched as the kids went through drills that she had once done for years before turning around and running them as a coach. Football had been a huge part of his life, the significant part of it really and now it was gone; taken from her along with her body.

Dana saw Josh smile wide and wave in her direction “What the hell is he doing? He’s not waving at…” she saw motion next to her and was shocked to realize that she was standing next to her wife “Olivia” she said suddenly.

“Yes” she turned and looked down at her as she was a few inches taller “Hello, have we met?”

“Um” Dana tried to think of something to say. She thought she might blurt out a number of things but in the end she just smiled and put her hand out and said “No, not formally”

They shook hands and Dana took in the feel of Olivia’s hand. A hand he had once held in a much larger hand in another life. “My name’s Dana; Dana Bradshaw…my son Justin is on your husband’s team”

“It’s so nice to meet you Dana!” Olivia said bubbly, embracing her role as ambassador for her slightly gruff spouse “Have you had a chance to meet my husband?”

Dana smiled “If only you knew…” she thought as she said “Yes as a matter of fact I have; we spoke after practice last night for a few minutes”

“I hope he behaved himself and didn’t make a scene” she said.

Dana saw the smile; Olivia’s smile that had melted his heart from day one right before her and felt nothing. “No, sometimes you have to worry about me making a scene though. I’m sure if anyone saw us they got a show”

Olivia laughed not quite understanding the comment before Dana continued “I just hope we get a win tonight…I’ll be curious to see the play calling tonight”

“Oh I hope we win too” Olivia held onto Dana’s hand and patted the back of it “I was never much into football before I met Josh and now it’s such a big part of my life. I try to act like I understand, but I still don’t really get it”

Dana laughed along with her as she surveyed her up and down. Olivia was wearing brown boots that came up to just below her knees, jeans and a bright blue top.

Those boots had been a favorite when she wore them, they showed off her calves along with the tight jeans that showed off her round and tight ass and nice legs.

Dana looked close at her smiling and laughing face. The dimples that came out in her cheeks, the way her nose crinkled when she laughed and the way her eyes narrowed as well. She looked at her thick dark hair styled in bangs but found that she no longer was attracted to her.

Dana compared herself to her, sizing her up as another female, albeit one who was 15 years younger and while she admired her figure, she no longer desired it.

 “I do wish that my ass was that small” was what she thought “and I’d swap my heavy boobs for her little perky ones any day, but I think I have a much nicer nose and lips and there is definitely something to be said for my boobs too”

Over Olivia’s shoulder, she saw what she really wanted: Mike was walking over with Katie and Sophie in tow.

“It was nice meeting you” Dana said as they all came up “I’d like you to meet my husband Mike and my two daughters, Katie and Sophia”

“Hi, nice to meet you!” Olivia said taking her hand away from Dana and offering it to Mike “I’m Olivia Tompkins…the Coach’s wife”

“Oh” Mike said shaking her hand as Dana shifted back a few steps and smiled as Sophie gave her a hug.

“We’ll see you in the stands” Dana said as she left with her family.

“Of course” Olivia replied before turning to another family that was waiting to talk to her.

Dana followed Mike to the bleachers. She hiked her skirt up a bit higher as she began to climb the steep aluminum steps in her heels. The clacked extra loud as she made her way up. She smoothed out her skirt and tucked it down as she made her way into a row and took a seat.

The stands were somewhat cold through the thin fabric of her skirt but her more ample rear made it bearable. She put her feet up on the row in front of her and put her hands on her knees, settling in for the game.

She smiled and gave a quick and shy wave when she saw Olivia coming up and taking a seat just below her and slightly off to her left.

The Bears came out and everyone in the visiting stands jumped to their feet and cheered wildly. The players out first followed by the coaches jogging up behind them and leading them in the sideline cheer.

Dana sat back down, her feet back up on the row in front of her, her elbows on her knees and her hands up to her face, and she began to watch like any nervous Mom in the stands without even realizing how she was fulfilling their words from the previous night. She kept her eyes on her son, number 10, as often as she could sometimes just watching him on the sidelines and not paying any attention to the play being ran.

Justin played on special teams during punts as the up back and that would be his only action for the night. A few minutes before halftime, Dana stood up and made her way to the restroom taking Katie and Sophie with her. She even said the very Mom like phrase of “You need to at least try to go since we’re going before the halftime rush”

She waited for both of her daughters to go first before instructing them to wait for her by the sinks. Hiking up her skirt in a public restroom was not her idea of fun but she knew it had to be done more often that she would have liked.

On their way out, Olivia was coming in “Fancy meeting you here” she said cheerfully.

Dana smiled and laughed “Don’t you just love these facilities?”

“You have no idea how much I hate this” Olivia replied.

“Oh yes I do” she thought but said “I think all women hate public restrooms, especially when you’re still dressed from work” she added tugging at her skirt.

Dana got in line at the concession stand to get everyone something to drink and Sophie was begging for a soft pretzel. Once more, she noticed that Olivia was behind her in line though she was on her phone texting so she didn’t feel obligated to talk to her.

Dana didn’t know what to say to her outside of generic small talk. “If I say anything more revealing I’ll sound like a crazy woman…I can’t be all like ‘Hi I’m actually your husband but I swapped bodies with this woman and so now you’re actually married to a woman in my old body’”

Sophie was talking and asking questions so Dana paid attention to her and talked with Katie too as they waited their turn. A simple smile was exchanged when she made eye contact with Olivia.

Olivia said “Great game so far”

“Yeah…hopefully they can keep it up in the second half” Dana replied with a cheerful smile as she herded her daughters back through the crowd.

Hiking her skirt back up to make her way back to the stands, Dana sat and watched the bands play their halftime shows. When Olivia returned to her seat, Dana scooted closer to her husband who wrapped his arm around her shoulder. She leaned her head against his chest in contentment.

The game ended up being a big victory for Josh’s team; 42-6. Dana conceded her point; he had lost to the same team 27-0 the year before so she had done a better job than him.

“Do you mind driving the girls’ home” she asked Mike “There’s someone I need to talk to you but you guys don’t need to stick around” she told him.

“Sure…don’t be too long” Mike responded along with a kiss.

Dana saw them off and then lingered around the buses until everyone began to filter out after about 20 minutes or so.

Josh was triumphant in the locker room “I did do a better job than him” he thought as he congratulated the team and handed out the game balls. He talked to his assistants while the kids showered and changed and packed up.

He stepped out with the first players, letting his assistants move the stragglers along. “Hey” he heard a familiar female voice say to him from the shadows.

“Hey” he responded standing up straight to his full height.

“Good game out there tonight Coach” Dana said walking up to him.

“Um…Thanks” he responded.

“You knew you could do it huh” Dana said giving him a skeptical look framed by a smile.

“I guess I backed up my words though” Josh replied.

“You did” she nodded and rocked her right foot back onto her heel. She waved her right foot back and forth slowly as she talked “So…crazy huh”

Josh shook his head and swallowed and sighed “I don’t know if this is the time or place to talk right now”

“It’s okay; I don’t think it’s going to actually take that long to say what I have to say” Dana told him.

Intrigued, Josh tilted his head to listen to what she had to say.

“So…the physical changes are obvious by I’ve been much more fascinated by the mental ones that have steadily kicked in over the past day” Dana said as Josh nodded in agreement.

She pursed her lips, rocked back and forth and clapped her hands in front of her “I know it’s only been a day but my life as you seems like a lifetime ago”

Josh’s face loosened in relief and he took in a deep breath “Me too”

They awkwardly made and broke eye contact with nervous laughter.

“I get the distinct feeling that this may have been the best thing that ever happened to you. I may be assuming too much here but I’m going to guess that after you thought about it; you were happy to be me” Dana said sizing him up.

“So what about you?” he asked cautiously.

She stared at him with the most serious face she could hold, her eyes steely and narrow and her lips pursed “I can’t even imagine being you anymore” she said breaking her poker face and allowing for a smile. “This is who I am and this is who I want to be: I don’t want to change back”

Josh exhaled “Oh Thank God…I don’t want to change back either…I mean no offense but”

“None taken” Dana told him “I just feel so much…I don’t even know if I can describe it but I just feel complete now, like this is what I meant to be. As strange as it sounds, I would rather be a 5’2” woman than a 6’5” guy”

“Take good care of the kids” Josh said a bit more emotionally than he had wanted.

“Take good care of Olivia and good luck with the little project you two are working on…it’ll happen soon I think” Dana added.

More and more kids were coming out and filing onto the buses.

“I know you’re busy and I’m sure we’ll bump into each other again but for now…Thanks” Dana said and turned away.

“Hey” Josh called out and she turned back “You look really great in that outfit”

Dana blushed “Whatever” she laughed and walked away.
