Walking into school as Tiffany Sanders was a surreal experience for Kyla. She had never had boys practically gawk at her in her cheerleader uniform as she walked by before. Feeling emboldened, she gave her platinum hair a little flick as she passed a freshman who subsequently walked into a wall. With Tiffany's body, she could finally win Jay's affections. Still, Kyla had discovered a problem already with her plan. She had no idea what Tiffany's schedule was and the bell for homeroom was fast approaching.
She started walking towards the front office, thinking she could make up a lame excuse about needing to print off her schedule when a hand grabbed her arm and quickly pulled her into the restroom. Soon she was standing in the handicap stall, looking down at her own body glowering up at her. She thought Tiffany must be trying to look intimidating but her body just wasn't carrying the look off, had she looked so puppyish before?
"Look, I don't know how you did it, but I want my body back now." Tiffany in Kyla's body demanded stamping her foot. Kyla, emboldened by their switch in position sneered back at her. "I don't know how we switched, and maybe you want to try being a little nicer to me? What would happen if tomorrow Tiffany Sanders suddenly joined the Goths?
Tiffany went pale at that, or as pale as Kyla's complexion allowed. "No! Uh, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have accused you."
Kyla put her hands on her hips and thrust Tiffany's own chest out in front of her. "No you shouldn't. We're obviously going to have to work together but I'm not going to be your punching bag. Now, we don't have a lot of time, so I suggest we exchange schedules and plan to meet this evening to figure out a long term plan."

Stephanie was easily having the weirdest day of her life. She'd woken up in the body of her headmistress without any idea how it happened. Not that it was all that bad; it meant she woke up in soft bed on the nicer side of town for once. She'd managed, following the real Ms. Lafayette's instructions, to get Amanda off to preschool. The kid was almost criminally cute and Stephanie was quickly becoming attached to her. After that they had met up at Ms. Lafayette's house to figure out what to do. They came to the conclusion that they'd need to impersonate each other, at least for the time being so Marianne didn't lose her job.
Marianne had laid out an outfit for her and given her a quick overview of her day. Luckily it was the first day back so the biggest thing she had to manage was a short speech at the pep rally before she let the cheerleaders take over. The outfit Marianne had selected for Steph was a charcoal grey skirt suit worn over a black pussy bow blouse with low heels. This was accompanied with a pendant necklace and matching golden hoop earrings. It was nothing like the grungy tee shirts that Steph would normally wear, but she couldn't deny she felt confident looking at herself in the mirror, Ms. Lafayette's elegant features staring back.
Despite Marianne's misgivings, Steph drove her Porsche to school, enjoying being behind the wheel of something other than her friend's truck. When she first walked through the halls, she'd held her breath, worrying someone would somehow know she was an imposter. Instead the students parted before her as they would for the real headmistress. In her life Stephanie had never received the respect that was now casually being given to her by most of the student body. Before arriving at Ms. Lafayette's office, she passed the headmistress in her teen body, awkwardly standing with Zoe Gibson and Athena Devries. She looked so small from Stephanie's new vantage point.

Roger was bubbly when he greeted two of Sarah's cheerleader friends at the school gate. He remembered Amber and Melissa from the girl's sleepovers and found himself quickly picking up on their conversation. They were talking about the routine for the rally, and despite not knowing many of the specifics, it reminded Roger of learning plays for football back in school He was becoming almost eager to try it out for real.
"Hey, Babe!"
Speaking of football though, he turned to see Sarah's boyfriend Biff, quickly approaching him. He hadn't been looking forward to this. Biff was an alright guy, but he was skeptical of any boy who got to close to his little girl. Plus he was a man, no way he wanted to kiss another guy even in this body. However when Biff leaned in next to him and kissed him on his lips, his body leaned into it almost on instinct. It felt like his face was on fire. How long had it been since he'd been kissed like that? As Roger surreptitiously examined Biff's well muscled body a thought occurred to him. Maybe he'd had Biff pegged all wrong. It wouldn't be so bad having him ... around.

After being convinced that it wasn't a dream, Leonard came to three conclusions in quick succession. One, if they didn't know what caused it, it was unlikely they could reverse the switch under their own power. Two, he clearly got the better deal of the trade. He absently twirled one of his long dark locks while Kelsey breathed heavily in her desk chair, exhausted from rushing over here. Three, if he played his cards right, he could keep the better end of the deal.
"Okay. Obviously we both want to swap back; now that I know I'm awake, it feels so icky having girl parts" Leonard lied through his perfectly straight teeth. Unlike him, Kelsey had never needed braces. Kelsey nodded along with him, emphatically. "But until we figure out how to do that, we need to keep appearances up. You're already going to have me in trouble for cutting school to come over here. What are your classes today?"
"Just US history at noon then econ at 2:30" Kelsey was prelaw so most of her classes were in the humanities. Leonard nodded his gorgeous head. "Okay, I'll sit in those so you don't get a mark for attendance. I can at least take notes for you. In the time between now and then we need to teach each other any important information we need to know."
"Shouldn't we be figuring out how to fix this?" Kelsey asked pitifully. Leonard shook his head, his dark eyes sparkling playfully, "What happened to us is supposed to be impossible, there's no one to go to. We can't afford to get tossed in the loony bin, then we'll never get out. Let's start with me since you cut class anyways, what do I need to know to be Kelsey Vanderfield today?"
