"The wish changes history, so you were always this way. And in that new history, as far as everyone knows, we were together since ... I think for at least six months," Alan said.
"Okay, but it still feels strange. Part of me wants to kiss you ... bad. But another part of me is disgusted by it. I mean, I still feel like a guy."
"Yeah, I guess I kind of feel about it the same way," Alan said. "But maybe over time we'll get used to it."
"Maybe. Hopefully. I don't like having mixed feelings about things."
"Me neither," Alan said, gently placing his hand on Joy's flat butt and squeezing it.
Joy thought she'd be turned off by it, but she oddly liked it. She snuggled up against Alan and almost kissed him, but then stopped. She just wasn't ready to do it, at least not in public. She wanted to take things slow.
