Chapter #6Michael is shocked by: sdaze   "What!?" Michael shouted with a shocked expression on his face, that was so clear, it was practically visible from orbit. He looked towards Rob, who merely shrugged.
The silence was interrupted by Amy. "I'm not totally irresponsible Mike, this way only one more person has to know, for now at least."
"But why Rob of all people?" Michael realised how bad that sounded, he turned to his mate. "No offence."
"It's cool man," Rob said in response.
Michael turned back to Amy. "Why not your sister or one of your female friends?" he asked.
"I suppose I could have asked them," Amy agreed, "but that's totally boring and I thought it would be kind of fun to try being a man." She could see the concerned look Michael was giving her. "Don't worry, I promise I've not gone all weird on you. I'm quite happy being a woman but I'm curious, you know?"
Michael could see how sincere she was. He had to admit given the chance he'd probably want to try being the opposite sex too. He sighed before turning to Rob. "And what's in it for you?"
"Um, what she said," Rob said, sounding unconvincing.
"Really? No ulterior motives?" Michael asked, doubting his friend's goals as he saw him give Amy's breasts a sideways glance.
"Yeah, I'll be the perfect gentleman, I mean lady."
Michael turned back to his fiancee, still cynical about Rob's intentions. "Okay Amy, this is your plan. How is it going to work?" he asked her.
"You could do the swap right now," she said.
"Rob still has to finish his shift," Michael said, sceptical about how much actually planning had gone into this scheme. "Whilst you no doubt are familiar with the basics, it will mean a lot more effort on your part."
"True, okay we swap when you guys finish, that'll work. I go off to Rob's place and you two go back to ours –"
"Hold up, you want me to go home, with Rob?" Michael sounded disbelieving that she'd even said it.
"It makes sense. He'll be in my body. All my clothes and stuff are at our place. Plus..." she gave Rob a hard stare herself before turning back to Michael. "...you'll be able to keep an eye on my body. In case anything happens."
Michael knew Amy well enough to realise she didn't entirely trust Rob herself. Even though she seemed excited about her plan, she still had some small level of apprehension.
A thought occurred to Michael. "What about um, Stacey?" he asked Rob, struggling a bit to remember his girlfriend's name.
"She's at her mother's all weekend," Rob answered. "Amy will have the place to herself."
Michael's expression became more sullen as he put his hand gently around Amy's hip. "I really wanted to spend this weekend with you," he said quietly.
"I know and I'll be there in body just not in spirit. Seriously, you don't get to spend enough time with your friends outside of work either. You can have a boys weekend at the flat instead."
"Boys weekend?" Michael asked, cringing at her cutesy phrasing. "What does that involve?"
Amy shook her head dismissively. "I don't know. Whatever guys get up to when you are on your own, talk about football, play video games, bitch about work, watch porn movies –"
"Amy!" Michael said in an astonished tone.
Amy giggled, "All that male bonding stuff. Whatever you feel like, absolutely anything you need to do." She stared right into Michael's eyes. "I don't mind and I trust you."
Michael could see she was implicitly trying to tell him something but he couldn't quite grasp it.
Amy turned back to Rob. "Only thing I ask Rob is that you go easy on the junk food. I'm trying to watch my figure."
"I'll do my best," Rob told her.
"Then we all meet up and swap back on Sunday night. Easy," Amy said to Rob.
Michael wasn't so certain. "Assuming my power works at all. It has been a long time since I used it."
"I have faith in you Honey," Amy said before giving him a peck on the cheek.
