But even more than that, she got to be a football coach. Diane loved football. Watched it all the time, played fantasy football and usually won. She had begged her parents to let her play as a kid but had been turned down flat. Her parents said it was because of her size, but it was also the 90s and girls weren't allowed.
Diane didn't want to just be a kicker either; she wanted to hit and play linebacker. Now, finally, she had a body to match her mentality. She had full access to her memory of suiting up and playing. 
The day flew by for her. She absolutely loved it. Immediately after school, she went outside and started getting the field prepped for a 2 hour practice. 
"Oh my God, I am finally in my element!" Diane thought. "I love this…I absolutely love this" 
She coached, instructed, yelled a bit, taught, showed kids techniques, feeling the sleds and tackling dummies.
At 5, she went home happy, fulfilled and content.
"I'm concerned about the levels of A-14 and A-15" Thomas's boss said on Tuesday afternoon "They’re looking like they're heading for a crossover event. Are you prepared"
Thomas nodded "We are...we noticed a high probability for these two as early as the first day of programming"
"These are numbers I've only seen a handful of times" the boss said "Are the Counselors ready for either outcome?"
"Yes. I've assigned Lisa to their case. She's the best one we have for cases like this" Thomas said.
"At least it won't be like your last one" the boss added before leaving.
On Wednesday morning, Dave woke up at 5:46 realizing with relief it was his day off. Steve's alarm would go off at 6 along with his daughter's alarm. Their son would get up at 6:20. He could tell Steve was awake and just lying there next to him.
Dave flipped over on his other side to face him and Steve smirked. "Good Morning" Dave whispered. 
"Why are you awake? It's your day off"
"I know but I'm used to getting up at this time" Dave shrugged. 
His small hands crept forward beneath the sheets; morning wood.
Dave now smirked as his hands gripped his husband's erection. "Hey…" Steve said.
Dave pushed him onto his back and moved down; he knew what he was about to do.
Dave's heart rate increased as he opened the flap of Steve's underwear and his erection popped out "Someone needs kisses" Dave said as he began to kiss and lick and tease Steve.
That was when he deep throated Steve's dick. Going full in "I can’t believe I'm giving him a blow job…" he felt odd, he was enjoying it too "...and I like it! There is no going back...not after this week" 
Dave knew that Abby had given him at least 2 while he was wearing the headset and now it was his turn to give rather than receive.
Steve stiffened and arched his back slowly. It wasn't going to take long.
Dave's small fingers wrapped around the base of the shaft and pumped a few times. He could feel it coming, then, his mouth was full and yet more was coming so he swallowed and took even more in.
He felt the warmth in his throat, the saltiness in his mouth. He knew the look on his face as he sucked hard moving up and off, giving the head a final flick of his tongue to lick him clean. 
Dave smiled and silently laughed.
As Steve got up to get ready, Dave took a drink of water from the bottle on the nightstand and turned back over to get some more sleep.
He heard the motion around him but kept in a half awake half asleep state. In that place, Dave could clearly see two paths open ahead of him.
Waking up at 8:30 to a quiet house, Dave stretched out in bed. Pushing his feet out as far as he could, he still came nowhere close to touching the footboard with them.
He showered and drank coffee naked, relaxing before getting dressed in leggings and a loose top along with sandals to go run errands.
Grocery shopping and a Target run took most of his morning. On the way home, he stopped at Subway to get a sandwich for lunch.
Diane had gotten to school before realizing she forgot her lunch she had packed so she slipped out and headed to Subway to grab a sandwich.
Pulling in, she saw a familiar car and her heart skipped a beat. 
Standing in line, Diane saw herself. "Hey Wonder Woman! How was your breakfast this morning?"
Dave heard a too familiar voice behind him "This didn't happen in that week!" was his first thought as he spun around "What are you doing here?!" Dave asked, surprised.
"I forgot my lunch at home" Diane shrugged "Look at you! You look so good at your height" Diane teased "And you blushing like that really brings out your natural color"
"Yeah...thanks for the costume" Dave replied "My husband loved it"
"I know he did" Diane replied, looking smugly down.
That was when the program glitched. 
Diane blinked and saw a giant man in leggings, sandals and a woman's top standing before her in a full rig and headset.
She gasped and looked down, seeing her true self below. She became aware of the warmup pants and shirt that didn't really fit her.
Dave too saw it. He was towering over the real Diane as his vision blurred, adjusting to the headset visor and sudden vertigo of his own height.
"Shit! Emergency overload!" Technicians ran to their boards flipping everything possible to release as the banks of computers suddenly froze.
"Download! Initiate reintroduction protocols!"
Diane shuddered as lights exploded around her eyes.  She saw Dave in front of her but still dressed in her clothes. But the headset and rig were gone.
Dave lurched forward as he saw Diane clearly again in front of him. 
A flicker of lights all around them and then "HHHHHRRRRRGGGGGGGNNNNNN" The loudest squealing noise ripped through them as a simulated power outage of the Subway occurred.
"Programs rebooted...fire it back up" the lead tech said.
Dave stumbled forward and put a hand to his temple. He ran it back through his long brown wavy hair. Looking up he saw a concerned look on Dave's face as he shook his head cautiously.
Diane blinked several times.  She was back to being taller and male again. Something felt different though as a tingling sensation lingered in her. An uneasy feeling settled in her stomach. 
Diane cleared her throat "Did you see and hear that?" She said happy that her voice was still low and sounding like Dave's. 
"I did!" Dave responded adding a nervous laugh "What was that about?"
"I don't know" Diane looked around. "I think whatever happened wasn't that bad"
"Yeah, I mean we're right back where we're supposed to be...scared me for a minute there though" Dave replied.
"Welcome to Subway, what can I make for you today?" The guy behind the counter asked Dave.
Diane knew what he was about to say "Turkey and Provolone on wheat" 
"I'd like a 12 inch meatball with mozzarella on Italian please" Dave said naturally.
Diane shook her head a bit and cocked it slightly to the right "That is not what I ordered that day"
Dave just went down the row, getting it toasted and chatting away as he got onions added on.
Diane stepped up, her mind was clear, she knew what Dave usually ordered along with a few backups if he was in the mood "Chicken Bacon Ranch please" she ordered and when she was adding on toppings, she noticed Diane waiting by the door.
"You called me down here for a sandwich order?" Thomas exclaimed. "Not when their programs froze?! But when he ordered a sandwich? Why are you…"
"Sir...the order was off script. The program caught it but he was able to go through with it" the technician explained.
"He broke program?" Thomas said. 
The technician nodded.
"Run back the glitch for me...send it up, I'll view it in my office"
Thomas rewound the entire morning. Diane had gone off the program first with not picking up the lunch bag. A chain reaction crossover had occurred when the two subjects then happened to cross paths unexpectedly.
Thomas tossed the paperwork in his hand across his desk "Three days off the reservation..fuck" Thomas said to himself as he looked at the monitors with both of them up. 
He had fortified the computers and hoped the program was fixed and no other glitches would occur "They can just slide back in" he told himself but with all the data he had seen on these two over the past few days, he knew he was just fooling himself.
Diane walked over to Dave who said "Honestly, I hope you're enjoying yourself as me...I have to say I love seeing you like that"
"Oh you have no idea...this has been so great. I love being you. Your job, the coaching…your size and body. Are you uh, enjoying being me?" Diane asked suddenly, a bit nervous.
"Absolutely! I am having the time of my life being you!" Dave replied and Diane sighed with relief.
They looked at each other, their eyes met. Dave smirked as Diane nodded "think about it" Diane said softly. "Hey, great to see you but I on the clock...gotta get back"
"Have a good one" Dave said.
Dave went home. He had a slight feeling of uneasiness as he ate only half his sub and saved the other half for later.
"See if you can change just one thing" Dave had heard Diane's thought "If you can change one thing; one small thing, maybe we can change everything"
Dave cleared his mind. Everything told him to go down the hall and turn right into the master bedroom and get out a fresh set of towels.
At the end of the hall, he fought it. With concentration and a conscious decision, Dave twitched. He felt his muscles pulled to the right but he fought that feeling.
A computer spiked.
Dave stepped straight ahead into the bathroom the kids used at the end of the hall.
Stepping in, he saw his Diane reflection in the mirror but he also saw the green plastic bin on the counter that contained all his daughter's nail polish.
Slowly. He reached out and slid open the drawer. There was resistance to his movement; an unseen force trying to hold him back like a strong wind.
A second computer spiked. With the flick of a switch, they stabilized.
Dave's shoulders shifted, her movements were freer. She exhaled and smiled like weight was lifted off of her. 
Dave grabbed the bottle of white nail polish. She cracked it open and sniffed smelling it's pungent aroma. She smiled and grabbed toe spreaders, Emery boards, q-tips, nail polish remover, cotton balls and some tissues and she sat down on the floor with a broad smile.
Dave grabbed her toes, and went to work like a natural.  It had been a while but it wasn't a skill she would forget just by taking two years off. She felt the softness of her feet, the few rough patches as she trimmed and filed her nails. She took her time, carefully applying polish to each one in turn with straight and true brush strokes. She cleaned up the little bit that got on the sides of her toes with the q-tips. "I'm doing this. I'm actually doing this. Not her...she didn't do this. I changed it. That means I'm in control. I changed one thing"
She sat back and put her legs out straight in front of her. She wiggled her toes and slapped her feet together as the polish dried.
"What does this mean though?" She thought "Does this mean we can stay like this even after Saturday? Is there a way to make this happen permanently?" 
She got up and kept her toes up as sheade her way to her bed. "Diane must be thinking about this too and wanting it to happen too" Dave shivered with joy even just imagining it could be possible. 
"What if I can stay? What if this could really become my body and my life? I want it to be. I can admit that at least to myself at this point. I want to take over Diane's life and have her body as my own and I really think she's up for the switch. Why else would she make sure our paths crossed today? She triggered the glitch; she had to and she did it to get my attention and somehow harness it together to get both of us to drive a real change. An actual, physical body swap. I'll do my best because I want this"
Dave looked at the closet to his right "Those could be my clothes...the rest of my life as Diane. The rest of my life as a woman. A permanent change, a permanent swap" 
She checked her toes. "But how? Virtual reality is one thing and this sure as shit feels real already. I just hope it's possible"
Dave got defiant. She went back into the bathroom and pulled out a bottle of lilac nail polish. She still had all her supplies out. She started to paint her fingernails. 
Dave knew Diane never painted her fingernails. Back in high school she had and once when her daughter was 4 and wanted them to match.
Now Dave did it as best she could. She Was meticulous but it was still a home job "I will get manicures and pedicures if I somehow, some way get to actually be Diane" she told herself. 
Dave went to the kitchen; she felt like cooking so she started to make homemade pierogies. She made up and rolled out her dough and her filling just like her Grandma had taught her.
Diane returned to the school and went to eat his lunch. He felt the tingling still running through his body "Keep pushing it, keep concentrating on making the change. If Dave can push it too, we can do this"
As he taught his first class after lunch and his toes felt numb, like they were asleep.
By his second class after lunch, his fingers were tingling and numb too. "This has to mean something" he thought.
Diane got out his phone. He felt the force pushing on him, the program said this wasn't a time he texted but he pushed through it in pure determination "If I want to keep this body, and I do, I will do this"
Once he began to text, the force let up. The program adapted and allowed a new path forward. 
Computers spiked outside Diane's room and adjusted. So many new variables were coming at them, they had to make predictions but with so many possibilities, every letter he typed brought forth endless strings.
'Did you do something to your hands or feet?' 
Dave had just washed her hands when her phone went off "How does he know?" She thought. Then it hit her "We didn't text that week! We're off script!" She took a picture of her left hand and another one of her toes and sent them to him.
Diane sat back. His heart was pounding in his chest "Oh my God" he muttered as he went numb.
'That is amazing. I love the colors' 
'Thanks :p' 
Diane went to practice and Dave talked with her kids when they got home from school.
Steve got home and walked in. Dave turned to him and she shook her head a bit. Steve glitched like bad movie CGI but only for a fraction of a second. Dave felt a quick tingle on her fingers and toes. She was expecting a comment from him at any second about how weird or odd it was to see her with painted nails. 
"Oh I love the colors you picked, was the Salon crowded today?" Steve said.
Dave was struck dumbfounded. She looked down and gasped seeing that her lilac fingernails were now professionally down gel tips and her toes were immaculate. "But, but I never do my nails" she said softly.
"Haha that's funny...we've been together over 20 years; you always do your nails" Steve said "you love having your nails done"
Every day when confronted with the mountain of changed data, Thomas just sighed. He was helpless to stop this now.
Thursday meant another full day of work for nurse Dave but it felt different. She was making choices and decisions and she felt her mind actively engaged. Not the autopilot feeling of Monday and Tuesday, she was using her training.
Friday came and Dave suggested that they go to the football game. Their kids didn't want to go so just her and Steve went.
Diane was in full game prep mode all day on Friday while Diane had cleaned the house and made chili as it was a cool day.
Dave's thoughts lingered all day on wondering how she could stay, how she could make all this real. But, she also took in as many details as she could just in case this was her last day.
She showered and shaved her legs, her armpits and her pubic area, taking her time, feeling the scraping. She put on lotion afterwards all over her body, keeping her skin soft.
She sat on her bed and concentrated "I want to try on a pair of pantyhose or tights"
She got up and went to her sock drawer and there they were; a pair of each.
Dave gasped and her stomach flipped. 
She pulled out the pantyhose and pointed her toes and began to roll them, force them up over her legs, laughing the whole time.
"They are hot and itchy and fake looking" she said, rolling them down off her legs until they looked like nude doughnuts. "No thank you" 
For the game, Dave got dressed in jeans, heavy socks, knee high brown boots, an undershirt, a thick navy blue sweater, a jacket and a scarf with gloves and a stocking cap in her pocket just in case.
She and Steve took their seats fairly high up. Diane was on the sidelines in khakis and a short sleeve blue polo shirt with the school name and logo on it. He was clapping and directing pregame drills, seemingly unaffected by the weather.
It was otherworldly watching Diane coach for Dave. He felt so far removed from it. Diane looked like a natural at it. 
Diane didn't look into the stands before the game. He knew his wife and girls were staying home with the lower temperatures.
It wasn’t until halftime as he was heading to the locker room when he saw his best friend and his wife in the stands. "Me?" Flashed quickly in his head and he scolded himself "No...not anymore" 
He raised a hand and smiled in their direction and they waved back.
Diane's team was down by 1 at the half 14-13. He laid into his team and made adjustments along with his assistant coaches.
Steve and Dave sipped hot chocolate and watched Diane's team score 21 unanswered points in the second half and they won by 20.
"Congratulations Coach!" Dave said as all three of them stood by the fence separating the field from the stands.
"Thanks it was a good win, the kids responded and stepped up" Diane replied.
Their eyes met and they gave each other a nod.
Where in the program, both spouses had given them a going away round of sex, now, both of them simply went to sleep in preparation for Saturday. 
Up early and nervous, both of them got ready and paced the floor.
The doors slid open.
"David...Diane...please step into the room together" the overhead voice boomed out, a voice they had not heard in a week.
Thomas flicked off the microphone. Steve was in another room. He had been watching throughout the week and had been in communication with Tom. This morning, he had decided to wait outside. He would watch later, his nerves were shot.
A short, heavy set blonde woman who introduced herself as Lisa Hoskins sat talking with him.
Diane took a few long strides towards the room. He could see the open door on the other side.
Dave took several deep breaths to try to calm herself down. Light streamed in from the room and she could hear footsteps.
Thomas had to move rooms as the computers were running so loudly it would be heard behind him. Probability statistics had run through their meet up and showed a 96% probable outcome.
Diane stepped into the room, mirrors reflected back on all four of them. He stood tall and straight.
Dave now moved into the doorway. She saw her old self standing there waiting. She smirked and shrugged and came out walking up to him with her hips swaying "Hey, long time no see haha" 
Diane chuckled and shook her head in a very Dave like way. "Yeah...exactly"
The computers struggled to keep up. Every ounce of power was now straining.
Dave put his small hand out and up and touched Diane on his shoulder.
She jerked her hand back as a shock of static electricity zapped her hand.
Diane jumped too feeling the quick jolt.
The computers surged. "Oh shit that was fast!" Thomas remarked.
That simple touch caused a crossover of the programs. The computers began loading the other's program files into their own. The files were overwriting the originals, sending corrections to the harnesses.
Diane and Dave felt warmth surge through them.
"It's time," Diane said.
"Are you sure about this?" Dave asked.
"I'm positive. Are you?" Diane asked.
"With every fiber of my being" Dave replied sincerely. 
The reflections on the mirrors began to change. On one side they remained how they were; on the other, they saw that reversed back to their original selves.
"I thought we'd have more time in here" Diane said "but I guess not"
"We know what we both want...these programs know what we want and they're trying to make it happen" Dave said. "I'll see you on the other side"
"Where we belong" Diane's headset flickered as she grabbed a hold of it and standing at her full 5'2, she stepped towards the wall and the reflection of the man she had become. 
Dave also reached up. For one brief moment everything was clear. He was 6'4 in that moment as he stepped toward the wall and the small woman's image that was there in front of him.
The computer running Dave's program flipped. The name displayed above his monitors changed from David Jacob Smith to Diane Laura Atkins as he lifted his foot.
Diane's program also changed. All the vitals jumped as the name above them now read David Jacob Smith instead of Diane Laura Atkins.
A surge of power and energy pushed through their harnesses. For a second, they floated in nothingness. 
The tips of Dave's toes on his right foot now came in contact with the barrier. Time slowed to super slow motion, every sense enhanced.
Dave smelled ozone, like the first time a furnace kicks on. Static electricity burst across the barrier making the wall look like an old TV screen waiting for a signal.
Dave felt his toes constricting and shrinking down as if squeezed. They narrowed and popped as they shrank down and changed size. His nails rounded and thinned, they took on the look of a professional pedicure as the nails took on white polish passing through.
A jolt ran through all of Dave's nerves "It's happening!" He yelled out, hearing his own voice coming from him, his deep voice that he knew was about to change forever.
Pure excitement coursed through him knowing what was just starting and what it meant not only for him but for Diane too.
They were exchanging bodies and lives, futures and pasts. They were becoming the other. Dave would become Diane and Diane would become Dave for real. From best friend to wife and vice versa. They had lived the flip side and both discovered that it suited them better.
More of Dave's big foot pushed through becoming smaller, dainty and soft.
The top of his foot and the sole changed, back to his ankle and heel which both pulled inward.
Diane put her right hand out towards the barrier first. She heard a distinct "Whoomp" sound as her hand passed through. Right before her eyes, she saw it plain as day as her hand suddenly grew larger. Bone and muscles and tendons all grew longer.
Her fingers splayed out in a muscle spasm as her fingernails thickened and flattened. Her knuckles bulged, small hairs appeared on her manly hand.
Diane's jaw dropped and she gasped as more of her passed through to turn into Dave. Her wrist widened as did her forearm as dark hairs appeared. 
Her left hand now came through. This time as her fingers changed, so did her rings. Her diamond ring vanished and her gold wedding band turned silver and stayed tight to her thicker fingers.
She drummed them through the air watching them fall and rise one by one in rhythm.
Her right foot now broke through with another "whoomp" followed by a hum as her foot expanded, widening and thickening as her toes grew larger, longer and thicker. Her rounded nails popped out wide and flat as hairs poked through her now masculine foot. 
It grew larger as it passed through changing in size from a woman's size 8 to a man's size 12...Bigger base for a bigger body.
"I'm really going to be Dave" it hit Diane as she could feel her body actually growing. "This is real; this is going to be my new reality; I'm going to be a 6'4"! I'm going to be a man!" Her foot passed through and her ankle and calf started to change "I'm trading my femininity for Dave's masculinity and he'll live out the rest of her life as me...as a woman"
More of Dave's leg passed through. His legs hairs shaved off cleanly along the line leaving behind smooth, soft skin. Muscle turned to fat and curves formed on his much smaller right leg.
He felt his skin tighten and his knee gave a weird little wiggle as it changed shape into Diane's knee.
Now his right hand swung forward and crossed the barrier. The humming increased and his fingertips tingled one by one as they passed through shrinking down.
Lilac gel nail polish appeared on small oval manicured nails "My fingers! My hands!" He thought as it continued shrinking and changing.
Dave's wrist and arm now scaled back. As his upper arm reached the line, muscle again turned to soft fat giving him a full but pliable much shorter feminine arm.
The softness now hit Dave's thigh. He smiled as it grew softer and fuller as it shrank down shorter. Full and round and smooth "My Thunder Thigh!" 
As his whole right side now angled for the line, his hip popped out wider and his ass began to grow but only his right cheek.
The changes rolled up his thigh pulling him more to the right as his height distribution was way off.
Diane had taken a more straight on approach. Her lower leg had lengthened, her knee had grown boxy and now her thigh was muscling up and growing longer as hair built up.
She pulled her face back as the majority of her body approached the static barrier, meaning that her breasts actually hit the line first.
Everything started to go through almost all at once. It was overwhelming to Diane as her breasts began to shrink, her stomach flattened but her pubic area exploded outward in growth at the same time her nose hit the barrier "Oh my God!" She said in her feminine voice.
The top of her right leg continued changing as it rolled over to her crotch.
Diane felt it internally first as her ovary on her right side shot forward. Her clit began to swell and engorged. A foreskin developed as she now had the head of a penis. Her vagina and vulva quickly closed as testicle slid out.
They grew larger, encased in a hairy sack as the shaft of her penis came pushing out.
Abdominal muscles built up her core as her breasts continued to shrink back in the midst of her torso elongation and thrusting her height higher and higher.
Her breasts wobbled, then tightened as they shrank up and back. Chest hairs popped through even as the small remnants of her breasts finally dwindled away. No trace of fat or mammary glands remained as pectoral muscles and tiny male nipples emerged. 
The changes now hit her face. 
Her small, pert nose bulged as it passed through growing broader and larger.
Her lips thinned as hair erupted out between her upper lip and nose.
Her mouth grew larger along with her teeth and tongue as her chin and jaw now joined in. 
They strengthened and grew more square and prominent as a full beard filled in.
Her cheeks slimmed and her eyes narrowed as they turned brown. Her eyelashes thinned, her brow line pushed out and her eyebrows darkened and grew bushy.
Her ears grew and her earrings vanished as her hair began to pull up rapidly. Her skull grew larger creating more disorientation.
Her neck elongated and an Adam's Apple popped out as her hair retreated hastily into a short cut fit for a man.
Her shoulders went through broadening greatly along with her upper arms where fat turned to toned biceps and triceps. 
As the changes ran down her back, she shot upward in height; she would never know another minute shorter than 6'4".
Dave rolled his left shoulder forward and began to square up to the barrier.
His right hip shifted as his right foot hit the ground on the other side sending a minor Shockwave up his new leg.
It thrust him forward and his crotch came to the barrier just ahead of the rest of him.
The tip of his penis hit the barrier setting off a chain reaction. It jerked back, shrinking down inch by inch as the head pulsated smaller and smaller as it concentrated down into his clit. The skin folded and opened, creating a vulva and vagina as his testicles pulled up and sucked into his body.
They passed back creating a uterus, fallopian tubes and ovaries as they went, recreating Diane's DNA.
An entirely new sensation enveloped her soft, smooth and flat mound.
Dave's stomach hit the barrier and he felt an instant release as it popped outward creating his Mom bod belly.
His left hip slipped forward and as the changes hit his chest, the top of his thigh bloomed out with an audible "bloomf"
His pectoral muscles softened and changed completely. His nipples puffed, his areolas spread out as flesh began to build up forming breasts.
As he leaned forward, they grew.
Larger and rounder until gravity hit them and they slipped down and slightly outward. Blue veins became visible across them instead of chest hair"
Dave gasped as more new sensations hit him, rushed through him, awakened things in him that weren't just dormant but were brand new, things he had never felt before or thought he would ever have the chance to experience. 
His left hand passed through. His fingers shrank down to match the right, manicure and all. This time an additional item changed; his silver wedding band turned gild, shrank down to fit his slimmer fingers and was joined by a diamond ring.
Dave drummed his fingers up and down as his arm continued going forward, changing as it did.
He felt the additional weight of the 1 carat ring. His arm softened and his upper arm filled out.
Now, Dave's face came to the barrier "Bye bye Dave face" he thought as he felt a static tingling hit the tip of his nose, his chin and then his lips.
His nose shot back, shrinking down into a small, pert, perfect female nose. His lips plumped and his mouth shrank down along with his teeth and tongue. He had Diane's smile. Strong white teeth clacked together as all his facial hair zapped away leaving soft smooth skin. His chin and jaw slipped inward, no longer square and masculine,  his face became more heart shaped.
His cheeks rose up and popped out. His eyes widened and turned a golden flecked hazel as eyelashes thickened and his brow softened.
His eyebrows trimmed and lightened. His ears shrank down much smaller as earrings popped in.
As the top of his head now came through, his skull shrank and his hair grew longer and turned wavy to curly growing down to his shoulders.
His neck compacted, his Adam's Apple disappeared. 
Now his shoulders rounded and pulled in as he came through. As his back hit the barrier, his spine shrank and Dave lost almost a foot in height in one fell swoop.
They were both mostly through and had matched up.
Diane's ass flattened as she carried further forward. Narrow hips and now her left leg, her trailing leg started through.
Her deltoids flared and her fat thighs were gone. Her knee came through.  Her left calf muscled and elongated as hair came through her rougher skin. 
Just her left foot remained her own, her female foot. Now momentum carried her and that foot came to the barrier. Her left toes grew, her nails widened, hair pooped out across the top. Her foot grew bigger. Her last vestige of femininity, her dainty left foot came through changing into Dave's all the way through her sole.
Dave's back shrank down and now he just had one ridiculously long leg.
His left hip continued its journey outward as his side curved in.
Now his ass plumped. It filled out into a round and firm ass that any woman in her kid 40s would be proud to possess.
His left thigh shrank but grew at the same time. Shorter but fuller and softer it changed into the thighs he wanted, the ones he desired.
His knee changed with a muscle spasm. His calf trimmed, lost muscle but gained curve.
Dave's ankle twitched and finally, his one remaining big foot, out of place on his now small body, hit the barrier.
His toes shrank way down.  White polish appeared on pedicured nails. His foot went smooth and soft as it shrank down several inches. The bottom of his foot passed through and changed into Diane's.
A hissing noise shot out and both of them took in a dramatic deep breath, sucking in air.
All the effects were gone around them, they stood in a plain warehouse looking room. Just the two of them. 
Dave was in shock. He stood still with all his muscles tensed, even holding his breath. "Is this…? Is this real?" He thought "Am I dreaming?" He took in a quick hitching breath. 
He couldn't deny it, he felt pressure against his chest. Two round mounds were pressed in tightly against his harness.
He felt a towering presence next to him, slightly behind him. Someone much, much larger than him stood over his right shoulder, also not moving.
He finally let his eyes drop down. "Ooohhhh Goooddddd" his voice came out as a breathy trembling shudder.
He saw everything. 
His tee shirt was big and ill fitting but bunched up, underneath, his strapped on harness couldn't conceal his chest. But more than that, he saw his legs.
Big soft thighs, undeniable thighs, thighs that were all his.
He saw how close the ground was and the small feet with white painted toes that sat upon the concrete floor directly beneath his eyes. 
"Oh my God….Ohmygod...ohmygod…" he started repeating, breathing harder and harder as his small hands fumbled up under his shirt trying to unhook the harness. He felt soft flesh where his fingers hit skin.
After a struggle, the harness came loose and his right hand went to the soft, yielding flesh of his breast "Oh! My!...GOD!" Dave cried out in his feminine voice. Tears filled his eyes and ran down his cheeks.
Hands now touched everything and everywhere as he explored.
To the smooth front of his throat, his full cheeks, his other fuller cheeks. His big thighs he wrapped his small hands around them. He ran the pads of his fingers over the smooth gel nail polish of his fingers.
He touched his face to make sure he wasn't still wearing a headset but it was gone, lying on the floor at his feet, a red light still blinking on the side.
Diane was immediately aware of her new size. Coming to a stop after stepping through, everything about her felt bigger. The room was small. The figure on her right, slightly in front of her, was small. She could see the top of that person's head. She recognized it immediately. The small crown of the head topped with wavy brown hair. The slope of the shoulders…"that's not me!" She thought. "It worked...it really worked! We switched places and I'm David now...she's me! I'm him!... I'm a him!" 
With just a thought and a muscle twitch, he moved his dick.
Dave was frozen next to him until she started a flurry of movements all while talking so fast it was almost incoherent.
The twitching caused Diane's dick to rise up in an erection. The whole situation was causing it too. The fact that they had physically changed. Her little 44 year old body had managed to change into this. Over a foot taller. 75 pounds heavier. Everything rearranging to become male, to become the exact David body she now possessed.
She reset her feet which seemed so far away.
"Bigger" she thought mentally tracing upward until finally her paralysis broke and her big hands went to the harness and nearly tore it off in her adrenaline rush.
Diane's big hands hit firm and flat flesh. "A man's chest…my chest?!" 
She looked down and chuckled. She was in shock at what she saw. Checking out her body she realized Dave had stopped for the most part.
Dave stopped and turned and came face to chest with his former body. The top of his head was now well below his former body's chin.
Slowly, Dave lifted his chin upward and looked into the smiling, bearded face he knew so well. But it was no longer his. 
"Is this…? Is it real? Did we…? Dave said in obvious excitement bouncing up and down on the balls of his feet.
"It's real. It's really real...we did it! We switched bodies!" Diane confirmed "I'm you flesh and blood through and through"
"We're like this forever!" Dave said "No take backs! I'm actually a woman...I'm Diane" she said.
"Yes you are. Your name, your body, your life" Dave replied.
Diane wrapped her arms around him and hugged him as tight as she could. It felt so different being the small and squishy one in a hug, but she absolutely loved it. She was now the smallest one in her family. Her husband and kids were all taller than her and she wouldn't want it any other way.
Dave hugged his old body back, having to lean down was new to him and feeling how soft she was, was a surprise "That was me. For 44 years that was my body but never again"
Diane just kept hugging Dave, they rocked a bit and Dave realized she was crying.
"I'm so happy" Diane said.
"Me too...I'm so glad you decided you wanted this too" Dave said.
Diane nodded "Sooooooo much! It was like missing puzzle pieces falling into place once I got into your body and mind. This was what I was missing all along"
"I know...I know" Dave whispered.
"Well, well, well, you two have had quite the adventure" Thomas said stepping into the room.
"Oh my gosh you scared me" Diane jumped.
"Truth be told, you're not the only ones who go through the program and decide to take on the other body permanently" Thomas informed them. "It's currently about 4% of all our participants. You two though pulled more power through your week than anyone before you. I knew this would be your outcome"
Steve now stepped in.
Diane took a step back as did Dave.
He walked up and with a smile, hugged his wife.
Next, he shook his friend's hand and gave them a nod. "I'm glad I have both of you in my life"
"You...you know" Dave said. Steve nodded.
"And you’re not mad?" Diane asked. Steve shook his head no.
"From what I understand, you two both have each other's memories as well as your own"
They both nodded. "We're both there"
"I've been talking with a therapist who was also someone who went through what you did. She's currently about 5'2 and 350 pounds after swapping into that body from her own one that was 5'9 and 135...and both of them are happier than ever" Steve said.
"So are we" Dave added. 
"I know you are" Steve admitted "And I'm happy with it as well. Frankly, I think you'll both be great at being your new selves. It makes everything fresh and new"
"We don't and won't take anything for granted. Ever" Diane said. "Being me, looking like this will never be something I take for granted. I absolutely adore this body! I appreciate everything about it! I love being short and a woman"
"And I know what it’s like to be short and female so getting to be tall and male is a dream come true. I still can't believe I'm standing here like this"
Diane rose up for another kiss. 
"Does this mean we all go golfing now?"
