“Oh, I just love when I get all my family around…nothing makes me happier” Mary Bennett said smiling looking around the room.
“Blow out your candles Grandma!” 5 year old Joey called out bouncing up and down.
“I will sweetie, I will” she reassured her grandson. Mary smiled and closed her eyes as she blew out her birthday candles.
“You made it to your Paul McCartney year Grandma” 20 year old Katie McCoy said patting Mary on the shoulder.
Mary reached up and clasped her oldest granddaughter’s hand “That I did...’When I’m 64’” she sang.
As the younger kids played and her Mom and aunts and uncles all talked as they cleaned up the kitchen, Katie came and sat next to her Nana.
“I miss Grandpa” Katie admitted.
“Oh Honey…so do I, every day” Mary said with a knowing smile and look. Her husband John had passed away three years ago from cancer. “But I know he loved all of us with all his heart and his pain is over now”
“I know it was rough on you” Katie said.
“It was, but he wouldn’t want me moping around for him; he told me that explicitly; and I don’t think I am” Mary responded.
“Of course you aren’t” Katie replied. “I can only wish I have your energy level when I’m in my sixties”
Mary laughed “Oh honey, you’ll find out that 64 isn’t old at all. That’s what makes losing your grandpa that much harder; we still had so much left to do and so much time to do it in”
“But you’re not officially 64 until Friday” Katie teased.
“Correct” Mary laughed before switching the subject “So how’s college going?”
“Awesome” Katie replied tossing her long brown hair out of her face “After I finish up this semester, one more full year to go”
“That’s great; then how much time do you have to put in before you can take your state boards?” Mary asked.
“Well, I’m already getting my clinical experience at the nursing home now” Katie answered and explained out her class schedule as she was studying nursing.
“Do you ever wish you had gone to college Grandma?” Katie asked.
“You know what” Mary replied “Looking back I wouldn’t change a thing but I can admit to you that part of me does wonder what it would have been like”
Katie smiled and listened.
“I graduated high school in 71 and married your Grandpa that same summer. Your Mom came along soon after…” she paused and looked at the photos on the shelves across the way showing Mary at 18, long poker straight hair in her graduation cap and gown next to her wedding picture and Lori’s baby picture.
“Let me tell you a little secret” Mary whispered to her granddaughter “Sometimes I regret that I never had any wild times. You know exactly what I’m talking about too”
Katie blushed and grinned “Grandma!” she teased.
“I married my high school sweetheart and was a Mom before I was 20; I never got to spend those wild weekends partying like I’ve heard you do” Katie blushed harder “What? You’re the one who showed me how to use Instagram?”
Katie just giggled as Mary continued “So I’ve always wondered…” she gazed off smiling missing the spark of an idea that formulated in Katie as the room refilled with people.
On Friday, Mary had gone to work at the Public Library like always. She had worked there for over 30 years now even though she was down to just 3 days a week. She had just gotten herself a drink and settled into her favorite chair when she heard a car pull into her driveway.
A knock on the door and then it opened “Happy Birthday Grandma!” Katie exclaimed coming inside carrying a large box wrapped in bright red paper.
“Oh Katie!” Mary exclaimed “What is all this?”
“It’s your birthday present from me!” Katie said excitedly.
“You didn’t have to get me anything!” Mary said waving her hands.
“Oh…I think you’re going to really like your present” Katie said putting it on the coffee table and giving her Nana a big hug.
Mary was still dressed for work but she had taken off her shoes; a pair of black loafers sat by the door. She wore a pair of black slacks and a red, white and black flowered blouse. Her hair, which she dyed a light brown was cut into a layered wedge and she had on her usual light makeup; a bit of base to cover up some lines along with light lipstick.
Katie wore a pair of black leggings and an oversized gray long sleeved shirt; her long brown hair was tied up in a top knot as she kicked off her black flats.
“How can you paint your fingers and your toes two entirely different colors” Mary said shaking her head.
Katie wiggled her fingers with their blush pink nails and stuck up her feet to wiggle her toes painted black.
“Not to sound super old, but back in my day, you painted them to match” Mary teased her granddaughter.
“Oh Nana…just you wait” Katie smiled barely able to contain herself in her excitement.
“What do you have up your sleeve young lady?” Mary asked.
“Oh…you’ll see” Katie said leaning forward almost bouncing back out of her seat.
Mary sat down across from her and took the box onto her lap. She carefully popped the tape and unwrapped a closed box. She looked over at Katie who was smiling broadly.
Mary opened the box but her smile faded to a look of confusion “I…I don’t get it” she said as she pulled out a very skimpy little black dress and a pair of strappy stiletto heels.
“Oh but you will!” Katie said standing up and pulling her shirt down nervously in the process.
Mary sat back in her chair still very confused.
“You’re going to wear that outfit tonight when you go to the party just off campus” Katie said.
Mary shook her head “But Honey, I could never…what are you thinking?”
“I’m thinking that there’s something else that goes with that dress and those heels” Katie said throwing her arms out “Ta-Da…the rest of your gift”
“What?”
“Grandma…I’ve been thinking about what you said last Sunday about never having a chance to go to college and have a good time so that’s what I’m giving you for your birthday; the chance to do just that”
“You’re not making any sense Katie” Mary said. “First off, there is no way I could even fit in the dress let alone wear it out in public at a college party and secondly….”
Katie cut her off “Actually, there is a way for you to fit in that dress and yes, you are going to that party” she smiled and looked her directly in the eye “You’ll be going as me”
“You’ve lost your mind” Mary stated simply.
“For one week; we will swap bodies and lives so you can have a chance to taste what you missed all those years ago” Katie announced.
“Even if that were physically possible honey, there’s no way I could ever take your, your body and live like you for even a second; that wouldn’t be fair to you”
“But Grandma, I want to do this for you; it’s my gift to you…let me switch places with you. It’s only for a week; nobody else will ever know…it’ll be our secret and think of it like this; for me it’ll be a total vacation! I can watch Dr. Phil for you…work a few hours at the library…come on! Say you’ll switch with me! Please let me do this with you. It means a lot to me!”
“But Katie, I wouldn’t know the first thing about being 20 years in this day and age” Mary deferred.
“It’s like you said Grandma; you’re not that old. You’d be surprised how fast you could act just like me…it wouldn’t be that hard!” Katie said.
“But what you’re suggesting is pure fantasy! There is absolutely no way we could ever possibly switch bodies with each other”
“But if we could…if we could do it…would you? I want to hear you say that you would switch bodies with me” Katie said.
Mary decided to placate her and play along “Fine; if it were possible than yes; I would switch places with you”
Katie squealed with delight and clapped her hands and danced around “I’m going to switch bodies” she sang out in a sing song tone “I’m gonna be Nana and Nana’s gonna be me!”
“You really think this is going to happen?” Mary stood up sliding the box off her lap and putting it on the coffee table in front of her.
Katie nodded “I know it’s going to happen now that you said yes!”
“But I…” Mary began.
“Oh Thank You Nana! Thank you so much for letting me do this for you! You have no idea how happy I am to give you this opportunity! You’re going to love it; absolutely love it!”
“I don’t know about that, I mean…I still don’t even understand what’s going on” Mary laughed nervously.
“You’ve always been so special to me” Katie said “But you sacrificed so much; you’re always giving but you never receive and you never get that chance to be loose and wild and free; never!” Katie smiled “But now it’s going to be your turn. I’m sorry it’s only for a week; I’d personally give you more than that but that’s how it all works; one week maximum and then it wears off and we switch back”
Mary just threw her hands up and her arm out “Oh I’m still so confused!”
“I know, but you won’t be for very much longer” Katie said. She leaned in and hugged her tightly again “Thank you so much for doing this, you won’t regret it”
As her mind swam, Mary thought that she was already regretting it; this was all crazy talk to her. “But Katie…there is just no way this could happen”
Katie smiled and reached into her purse. She pulled out two silver rings still smiling broadly. She slid one onto her left middle finger and took Mary’s hand in hers and slid the other one onto her left middle finger.
“Once we touch these rings while they’re on our hands, the clock starts ticking” Katie looked at the clock “Just remember that you have to be back here next Friday at 3:00. We will swap back a few minutes after that no matter what” she saw the clock read 3:12.
Katie moved Mary’s hand up so the palm was flat and the put her own hand up in a similar fashion a few inches away. “I’m going to take your hand in mine and once I do, it’s going to start. Your body will begin to change into mine and my body will change into yours…my only rules are don’t get me pregnant and don’t get me arrested or thrown out of school okay”
Mary shook her head again. She stumbled over her words and merely mumbled a bit instead of protesting or asking a coherent question
Katie’s hand slowly inched forward; her hand was larger than her Grandma’s and her skin much smoother, and her nails were longer as well as being painted.
Their fingertips touched first and Katie brought her palm up to Mary’s, finally the silver rings came together.
“Ow!” Mary said at receiving a shock. She yanked her hand back and saw the ring glowing on her finger. Heat pulsated out from it but also in from it as Mary felt a warmth spread out from her belly, her core; down her legs and out her arms down to her fingers and toes and then up her spine through the back of her neck to the top of her head.
Mary shivered all over “Ooo” she said still tingling giving her shoulders a shake. Katie still smiled standing before her but she too had taken a step back.
Katie had felt the wind get knocked out of her when her ring touched her Grandma’s. A shockwave hit her like a ton of bricks; her shoulders jerked and her knees buckled as she exhaled all the air from her lungs.
Katie saw the ring glowing bright as fire on her middle finger as her insides churned and her muscles ached a deep heat came rising up from her belly, her core; causing her arms and legs to numb all the way to her fingers and toes.
She flexed them out; they felt stiffer than they had before and she cleared her throat but quickly recovered to stand back up to her full height of 5’9” and maintain her joyful smile.
Mary looked up at her granddaughter; 7 inches separated them in height as well as 44 years in age difference; both numbers would soon be reversed.
Mary felt a sudden burst of energy. Her eyes widened and her pupils dilated. She felt her throat rise up and her chest swelled. She pulled her shoulders back automatically and put her chin up taking in a deep breath. Her lips parted and she now began to smile despite herself; she simply couldn’t stop the feeling of excitement and anticipation building up inside of her; she felt like a kid on Christmas Eve.
Mary rose up on her tip toes for no apparent reason. She clasped Katie’s hands in her own “I can feel something…something is happening isn’t it?” she asked.
“Yes Grandma. I told you it was going to happen; and I’m so happy you can feel it too” Katie replied. “So you believe me now?”
“I can definitely feel something but until I see something I…” Mary was saying when she abruptly stopped. She looked down to the ground and her feet. “I…she tried to continue to say as her brow knitted as she tried to comprehend what she was seeing.
Mary’s right big toe quivered slightly before it began to move on its own. It straightened out and grew longer changing shape as it went with it becoming wider. Her toe nail smoothed out and thinned and her skin smoothed out as well as it darkened slightly in color and tone.
“Ah” she let out a quick exclamation as her left big toe now began to move and change followed by all the rest of her toes on both feet.
Mary’s toes straightened and lengthened, her nails changed and then began to darken as black nail polish started to appear and fill in eventually topping off with a shiny top coat.
Mary lifted her long toes and wiggled them, amazed “But how?!” she said as the rest of her feet began to change. The balls of her feet softened and lifted up plumper as the skin on top smoothed out, veins vanishing inward. Her arches rose and the skin on her heels healed and became pink and smooth even as they grew two sizes larger from a 7 to a 9.
Mary’s eyes shot across to Katie’s feet “We match!” she said breathlessly “I have your feet! My feet look like yours now…Oh My Lord I just watched my feet change into yours! This is…”
“Awesome right?” Katie said smiling and nodding.
“I was going to say impossible but…” Mary looked up to her smiling granddaughter. She now laughed and nodded too “I’ll go with awesome, sure!”
“I just can’t believe it” Mary said.
“Well you’d better believe it because it’s going to come true. It’s going to take a few minutes but it starts in your toes and will go up to the very last hair on your head” Katie said.
“But what about you?” Mary asked “Why would you turn yourself into a 64 year old lady?”
“For you” was all Katie said as tears welled up in Mary’s eyes.
“Don’t you dare cry or else you’ll get me to crying too” Katie scolded as she brought up the heels of her palms to wipe away her own tears.
“Oh” Katie said flatly but then followed up by a louder “OH!” as she felt her own feet begin to change.
A dull ache settled into her arches and she really wanted to bend down and rub her feet but she remained upright and watching from above as her toes twitched and started changing shape. Her skin paled and callouses and rough patches began to spring up along her toes. Her heels cracked and rivulets appeared in her whitening and roughening skin as her feet contracted down two sizes.
“Ow” she thought but dared not say it. The muscles in her feet cramped as they shrank down and changed. The pain subsided yet lingered down deep in the center of her feet. Her big toes shrank and crooked inward, her nails thickened and rose up. The rest of her toes followed, all getting smaller in turn before her nail polish faded away to plain, unadorned nails.
Katie tried to wiggle her toes but they wouldn’t move as much and she couldn’t lift them up as high as easily as she could with her own feet. Her second and third toe remained next to one another no matter how hard she tried to get them to separate and spread apart. “Huh” she finally said.
Mary slid her foot out in front of her closer to Katie. She lifted her right foot and let it hover over top of what her foot had looked like, letting out a little girlish giggle as she freely curled up her long toes.
“Now that it’s started, we know where it will go” Katie said.
Mary felt her lower legs stretching up and out “Yeah, um, no place for me to go but up” she said as she lifted her pant legs and hiked them up to her knees.
The small bumps on her shins were smoothing out and the blemishes on her skin were vanishing as her ankles trimmed and her calves tightened and lifted up strong and smooth. She gained an inch in height, now standing 5’3” tall and only getting taller.
Her eyes shot to the pair of strappy black heels in the box on the table and realizing that they would fit her now and when combined with what her height would be she said “Oh My God, I’ll be 6’ tall in those!” as she pointed to them.
Katie gave her a slow approving nod “You betcha” she said.
“Did you just say…?!” Mary replied.
“Ah!” Katie was shocked “I sounded just like you!” She laughed “I’ve never said ‘you betcha’ before in my life and now; boom; there it is!”
“Maybe fitting in won’t be as hard as I thought” Mary replied.
“Yeah…if you can sound like me as well as look like me…then it’s going to be a lot easier for you” Katie said.
Katie got a cramp like a Charlie Horse for a passing second as her lower legs changed and shrank down. Her tights grew outward, moving with the flesh behind them. Her calf muscles drooped and came down thickening her lower legs greatly.
They were much more solid and thick than before and her ankles puffed up and out as well “Cankles” she said.
“Sorry” Mary replied with a shrug “What are you gonna do?”
“Take them from you is what I’m going to do” Katie said. “They’re mine now…I don’t need to go running around in heels for a while; that’s all on you now”
Katie didn’t lift up her leggings to expose the changes to her skin but they felt itchier to her as the bumps rose up.
Pain now gripped Katie’s knees and she sucked in a quick breath and grit her teeth. Mary looked up at the sound but Katie faked it well enough when she said “It’s still going up” in a cheerful enough voice as her knees puffed out; the muscles weakening and a dull ache settled in.
Mary started flexing and popping her knees back and forth enjoying motion and movement like she hadn’t felt in years “I don’t even remember my knees not hurting but that means that yours…”
“Are fine” Katie said “Just different to me” she smiled sweetly down.
Mary bit her lip and let her pant legs go. She looked nervously up at Katie “Would you um, mind if I…” she pointed at her waistband and did and unfastening gesture.
“Not at all!” Katie said “I know what they’re going to look like; it’s not like it’s a surprise for me” she waved her hand in a dismissive gesture that Mary recognized immediately as one of her idiosyncrasies but yet she had never seen Katie do it before that moment.
Mary unfastened and dropped her slacks. She let them drop to the floor and quickly sidestepped out of them. Her legs simply didn’t match. Her lower legs were tight and smooth and her upper legs sagged and were stout and heavy. Dimples marked the backs and sides of her thighs and the visible parts of her hips. Her rear end was much larger than what she would be getting and she wasn’t afraid to admit being curious to watch how it all changed.
“Watching this is so fascinating!” she declared.
Katie got a glimpse of where her body was heading and while it didn’t scare her one bit, she too had to admit to being curious “It seems like everything hurts me a bit when it changes on me but gives her a new energy boost” Her Grandma’s belly hung down, poking out from underneath her blouse and for the first time, she realized that truly everything about them would be changing as she looked at the front of her panties seeing that it was raised up quite a bit more than her own. “That’ll all be mine in a few moments” Katie thought “The body of a 64 year old and I think more than that too”
“Should I…?” she asked out loud looking at her own legs in her leggings.
“Whatever you’re comfortable with” Mary said “You can leave them on if you want” She laughed then, deeper and stronger than either one of them were used to hearing “But it’s like you said, it’s not a surprise for me if you want to see what you’re getting; I know it all too well”
Katie smiled as her thighs clenched and a new pain seared through her body forcing her to reset her feet. Her leggings bulged out again as her thighs began transforming into her Grandma’s thighs.
Katie’s thighs shrank down shorter, taking away 2 more inches of her height immediately as they grew wide and soft beneath the pliable fabric. Dimples and cellulite pockmarked the backs and sides of her legs.
But at 5’6” she saw her Grandma rise up taller, coming up nearly equal to her in height as Mary gained those two inches away from Katie’s legs. And with those legs changing away on her, she stood 5’5”.
“Ah!” she exclaimed “I’m as tall as you are finally!” Mary said.
They were eye to eye, Katie just barely taller for the time being “I remember when you were about 11 and you were so excited to get taller than me” Mary reminded her “Every time you came over, you stood back to back with me until that day when you finally got taller than me” Mary shook her head “Never would have thought I’d see the day…”
Katie shrugged and smiled “You can never say never I guess. Who would have thought we’d be switching places and I’d become the shorter one again?”
Mary giggled again and ran her hands up and down her smooth thighs. The muscles tightened along with her skin as she now had the legs of a 20 year old, toned and tan, long and lean. Her legs popped one more time as the changes began to rise into her hips and ass and she grew another inch taller in the process “Ooo” she shivered.
“Oh” Katie said and shivered as her legs settled again dropping her another inch and taking her down shorter than her Grandma. Her eyes were slightly higher than her own now as they met in a knowing look.
Both of them burst out laughing.
“I’d say the shoes on the other foot, but it isn’t…yet!” Mary said.
“You respect your elders’ young lady!” Katie teased “Oh…and get off my lawn!”
“Oh MY God that’s so funny!” Mary said placing the extra emphasis on the word my just like Katie always did.
“Oh…oh…OH!” Mary said. She ran her hand around her inner thighs as they separated, the skin so smooth to her touch she couldn’t believe it. Her hips began to lift and slide inward, tightening and strengthening and gaining flexibility as her panties sloughed off now several sizes too big.
As her ass began to lift and shrink, she felt the fabric slip away from contact with her flesh.
Mary’s hands flew behind her and she squeezed, still feeling way too much cushion for her liking. Her cellulite vanished as her gluteal muscles took on alarming renewed curve and tautness. “I don’t think my ass ever looked as good as yours does…ever” she admitted.
“You take it and enjoy every second you have with it” Katie said earnestly. “You earned it; you move it and you enjoy the attention you’re going to get from it”
“Why…once again I have to ask you why?” Mary said, her ass still shrinking up into a perfect round shape behind her.
“I love you and want this for you; it’s the least I could do for you when you really get down to it” Katie said. A deep throbbing was emanating her hips as she said it. They were sliding outward, weakening and becoming more brittle “I want you to have a good time in my body if you know what I mean”
Mary blushed “Grandma…” she said and neither of them were sure if she was referring to herself or to Katie.
Katie didn’t think her leggings or panties were going to make it. She felt them surge outward and heard a distinctive ripping sound around her waist and at the bottom of her butt cheeks. Her hips had already put an enormous strain on them but now she had to act “Coming down!” she said as she pulled them down exposing her expanding ass for both of them to see.
Katie could feel it growing. She could feel weight shifting behind her and piling on changing her center of balance and the entire shape of her body “I’m pear shaped” she muttered as her ass continued to grow unabated and unencumbered by clothing.
Dimples popped and cellulite appeared on her thickening and widening rear. Her hips continued to shift, being driven further and further outward by her ass and as her body began to settle in and down, Katie lost another inch of height.
Now just 5’4” and two full inches shorter than Mary, she knew what would be switching between them next.
Mary had left her now too large panties on and Katie had brought a surprise thong along in her purse for her later but for now, Katie struggled to work her leggings off. They had grown awfully tight in the process and she basically came down to rolling them down and off her older legs.
Her gray long sleeved shirt hung down and covered a good portion of her modesty but a deep seated humming sensation hinted at what was to come.
Mary felt it too. Nerve endings were coming to life all around her and through her. Her cheeks blushed a hard red as her heart rate soared and her breathing became shallow. With a sudden pulsation, her pubic area rose up momentarily, then it began to lower, deflating almost as it constricted. Her muscles tensed up, pulling tight and tense as fluid surged forth. 44 years reversed and things that had lay dormant came roaring back to life.
Mary pressed down just above, biting her bottom lip hard and squirming. She gyrated her hips and stuck her ass out trying to contain herself. Her clitoris popped up, engorged and on high alert, humming with energy as her vagina folded and shifted taking on Katie’s shape “Oh God!” she said unable to keep her mouth shut “Oh…God…”
Mary pulled her loose panties out and stared down at the shaved mound she had gained. It glistened, primed and ready.
“Condoms” Katie whispered “For the both of us…please…condoms” she shut her eyes.
“Yes, I know” Mary responded with the amount of sarcasm only achieved by a college age girl accompanied by an eye roll.
For Katie, 44 years slammed into her hard. A literal gut punch took away all the activity from her uterus and ovaries.
Katie’s hands went forward and pressed down; it was if someone had put a dimmer switch on everything and turned it way down. From a high frequency hum to a low ebbing, her clitoris shrank back and eased down. Her vagina folded and the skin moved, taking on Mary’s shape. A slight flutter pushed through as a dry feeling settled in and gray hairs popped out of her skin as her entire pubic area swelled up and lifted outward.
Katie continued pressing and pushing inward, moving her fingers a few inches in a different direction trying to get a deeper feeling than what she was registering.
Mary looked embarrassed and Katie looked confused, not sure what to do with her now post-menopausal body “I didn’t really think about what my body would go through…I was thinking more about yours” Katie admitted.
“I know you were and that’s why I love you” Mary said “The amount of selflessness you showed to me…”
Katie smiled looking up to Mary as she now stood about 4 inches taller. “Getting older isn’t for the weak” Mary said.
“Yeah…you’re telling me” Katie replied as she felt her stomach rumble. A sloshing sound followed along with a swelling sensation as her stomach and waist began to grow. Katie’s narrow waist and flat stomach softened and puffed out. Her belly button deepened as flesh and weight came forward until she had her Grandma’s soft pot belly.
Katie blushed hard as her stomach swelled than sank down giving in to gravity under her gray shirt just before a shiver ran up her spine.
The shiver changed to a sharp pain in her lower back as her muscles weakened and her bones compacted taking her down even shorter and to Mary’s height of 5’2”
Mary lurched forward as her back strengthened and elongated. A wave of power washed over her, elating her and making her whole body tingle. She grew again, this time up to Katie’s full height of 5’9”. Even if their bodies didn’t totally reflect it quite yet, their numbers had reversed. Their heights had swapped as well as their ages; Mary was now 20 and Katie was 64.
Katie grimaced slightly as she reached up and under her shirt to unhook her bra to try and minimize the damage to it while Mary fidgeted and squirmed against her ill-fitting old blouse.
Katie’s sides formed rolls and sagged as Mary’s entire torso tightened up.
Mary’s waist started to creep in as her stomach lifted; the fat and soft rolls vanishing one by one as they pulled back eventually coming down flat with a slight outie belly button. The curve of her hips and slender waist giving her an hourglass that she couldn’t wait to see outlined in that little black dress.
She eyed the box again, picturing how she would look in that outfit; she didn’t care if she had on any panties at all. The thought sent shivers up her spine again making her shoulders shake and her knees quake at the possibilities.
“What are you jumping about?” Katie asked, her voice wavering, sounding weaker and frailer if not going all the way to Mary’s voice quite yet.
“Nuh…what? Oh…nothing…I just caught a chill” Mary said lifting her shirt up and over her head.
Katie gasped seeing Mary’s chest come into view “Oh Honey” she said instinctively, her hand coming to her mouth in modesty.
Mary’s skin was changing; tightening up and smoothing out. All visible flaws and marks caused by her years were waning and fading away leaving nothing but flawless and toned tan skin in its wake.
Her arms were still old. Her upper arms plump with loose flaps of skin on the underside “My bingo wings” she called them when joking about them.
Katie’s eyes fixated on her arms; she smirked and snorted when Mary gave them a flap “Bet you’re looking really forward to passing those over here to me aren’t you?”
“Whatever gave you that idea?” Mary asked with her own grin showing up as she downcast her eyes.
“I’ve told you I’m prepared and ready to have your body this week” Katie reminded her “I knew what I was getting into even if a few of these changes have been a bit, well, more intense than I had anticipated”
Mary smiled and blushed anew while practically bouncing as her energy increased exponentially. “I just could never have imagined how this would feel. I had totally forgotten ever feeling like this”
“Quite the adrenaline rush” Katie acknowledged with a nod.
Mary simply giggled.
Mary felt her breasts spasm and tremble. The skin there tightened and gravity seemingly reversed itself as they began to lift and perk up, growing smaller as they lost their sag and drag appearance. Her large and plain beige bra became useless and pointless as her boobs could have held up on their own without support.
Mary’s nipples burned fire hot as they exploded into life, sensitivity running through them as even her areolas brightened and shrank.
With an unexpected suddenness, Katie’s breasts surged forward “Whoa!” she cried out as she bent forward, her boobs pushing out against the undone bra, lifting it up and out of their way.
Katie’s nipples puckered and her areolas darkened and spread out as weight and flesh rushed forward.
Katie stood up and felt her boobs sway and swing and rub their way into place much lower than her own breasts. She looked down, pulling her collar out to see her skin wrinkle and warp, spots and blemishes appeared as the skin loosened.
Self-conscious about her appearance and body, she decided to keep her top on no matter what. Her sleeves began to feel tight as her arms grew wider.
Mary slipped her hands under her bra and cupped her firm round breasts. Her jaw dropped at the sensations that ran through her rejuvenated body. “My God” she whispered breathlessly.
“Pretty nice huh” Katie teased.
Mary smirked and snorted much like Katie had done moments earlier “Well…” she tossed her head back and forth “Yes, they are”
“We simply look silly now” Katie conceded, her arms plumping up and her skin loosening under her shirt. She felt wobbly motion in her arms as she moved about,
“Oh I know” Mary agreed, her eyes wide as she nodded. She ran her thumb over the ring on her middle finger, still feeling the warmth emanating from it. Her shoulders rose up, skin pricking up as it smoothed.
Mary’s upper arms now began to change “For some weird reason, this is one I’ve been wanting to see” she said as she held her arm up.
Both of them watched fascinated as her muscles twitched, toned and tightened. Her skin lifted up and pulled taut, sucking inward until no loose millimeter could be found. This was with her right arm and they both quickly focused on the left to watch the process repeat itself.
Even the skin on her elbows bounced up, hydrating with youthful glow as her forearms now tightened up as well as grew slightly longer.
Katie pushed her sleeves up from her wrists enough to catch a glimpse of her wrinkled skin “Still moving” she assured herself.
“Let’s put our hands out together!” Mary said. She put hers out flat in front of her and Katie quickly followed so all four hands were clearly visible. Katie’s young hands hovered near Mary’s older ones which quivered slightly.
Then, they were still.
The slight shaking stopped as Mary’s fingers splayed outward. She took a deep breath as Katie’s hands now moved involuntarily, a little vibration here and there as she spread her own fingers out.
Katie clenched her teeth as her joints began to throb and ache in her hands and fingers. Her knuckles seemed to get larger as the rest of her fingers thinned. Her skin slackened and veins grew larger and more apparent across the backs of her hands. The same flaws and spots that were now riddling her skin appeared on her hands as well.
Dryness set in as she ran her fingers over her palms in a single motion. Her nails started to thicken up and pull back shorter as the appearance of her fingers changed. Her blush pink nail polish faded much as the black on her toes had done until only pale nails remained. Her left index finger moved the most; shaking a bit as she balled up her fists feeling the years of wear and use in them.
As Katie’s hands aged, Mary’s revived. Her now steady hands grew larger as the skin came down and lay flat hiding her veins and sun spots. Her knuckles narrowed and her fingers grew longer and thinner. Her nails strengthened and grew out long as the blush pink nail polish filled in, topping off her youthful hands.
She too made her hands into fists, feeling the strength held there, pain free she waggled her fingers all about.
Mary was smiling as she took her eyes off her hands and focused back on Katie before her. Katie was already watching Mary’s face when their eyes met. Katie reached up and undid her top knot, letting her long brown hair cascade down over her shoulders “Yours soon enough” she said. “Looks like this whole process is going to be over in the minute or so”
Mary nodded smiling broadly “Uh-huh; Ooo I can’t wait to have your cute little face” she said rocking back and forth excitedly.
Mary ran her hands across her neck feeling the shortness of her wedge haircut, anticipating the growth that would soon begin, but first, the skin on her neck had to lift up and tighten.
Mary’s chin rose up instinctively as her neck changed into Katie’s where once again, her form tightened up and her slight double chin disappeared.
It wasn’t gone from the universe for long as it soon reappeared on Katie who felt her neck sag and her chin pull down and inward taking her jawline with it.
Katie’s skin took on a shiny tone on her cheeks as her skin continued to age and change but now Mary’s makeup had come onto her face. Her cheeks slackened and her lips started thinning as red lipstick coated the surface.
As this was occurring to Katie, the opposite was true for Mary. Her chin and jaw rose up and her skin took on a healthy glow as her makeup vanished. Her natural colored lips plumped and filled out. Her teeth began to strengthen and straighten out whiter and stronger than before.
Mary’s hair now began to grow out as well. All signs of gray and her dye were overtaken by Katie’s natural tone. Wisps of hair grazed over her ears and tendrils wound around her cheeks and the back of her neck before an explosion of hair blossomed and it feel down in natural waves over her shoulders and upper back.
Katie’s bottom teeth shifted first, going slightly crooked as her teeth got smaller and weaker. Her upper teeth soon followed in changing while remaining straighter than the lower ones. Her mouth felt drier and it sat lower on her face. Her nose now dipped and her upper lip shifted in size and placement.
Katie’s nose thinned and grew longer at the end as it replicated Mary’s nose just before her brown eyes lightened to blue and blurred.
Mary took off her glasses and handed them over to her granddaughter. Katie eagerly took them in her hands and brought them up to her face, sliding them on even as her ears shifted and shrank down to change into Mary’s. Her dangling hoop earrings looked rather silly hanging down from her ears now but neither woman had bothered to remove them before the changes reached them.
Mary’s eyes strengthened in sight and darkened to a deep brown, her eyes widening as they changed in Katie’s eyes “I’m seeing the world through your eyes now” she said, the lines and wrinkles fading away as she did.
Her simple pearl studs shifted slightly as her ears changed and grew larger on her larger head. Her nose broadened and pulled back at the end as her cheeks rose up strong and firm.
Katie’s hair lifted up; her natural brown turned bottle brown as it layered up into her Grandma’s wedge cut much more befitting a woman of her age and she ran her hand over the back of her neck glad to have lower maintenance for a week when it came to her hair “No fuss” she said giving her head a mild shake.
“Ah!” Katie said in shocked tone stepping back and seeing the whole picture of Mary before her. “You look so young!” she said.
“And you look…” Mary began smiling.
“Don’t you say it young lady…you zip that lip of yours right this instant” Katie shot back. “I think I look great for my age.
“Oh you do, you definitely do but I just don’t think that party is on your agenda any longer for tonight” Mary teased.
“That, you are correct about” Katie said, her voice pitching up as she did. A reediness was working its way into her voice as Mary’s deepened and fortified. Their speech patterns and choice of words were changing along with their voices. Mary took on a more sing song tone befitting of her youth while Katie sounded older, plain and simple; her words reflected a different time and age. Katie coughed to clear her throat but it didn’t feel like it did much good.
“What can I ever do to thank you?” Mary asked.
“You can get your little behind into that dress and go have the time of your life, that’s what you can do for me” Katie said.
“Thank you Katie” Mary said but Katie put up her hand.
“No. You’re Katie now” she said. “Get used to the name and don’t call me that until 3:15 next Friday; until then, it’s yours”
