The next morning Jon awoke with a yawn. He stretched, placing his left arm around the body next to him. It took a few seconds for this oddity to percolate through his sleep addled brain. He looked down and leapt out of bed with a start.
"Hey sweetie, what's wrong?" asked the boy, at least Jon thought they were a boy; they had a slim body with dainty limbs and a flat chest. There was a hint of an Adam's apple and their face was on the masculine side of androgynous. But they were wearing female pyjamas. Jon squinted, there was something familiar about the face, and he was sure he knew the voice, but knew it as deeper.
"Biff?" he gasped in shock. "What the fuck are you doing here?"
"I-I'm your boifriend," replied Biff, beginning to tear up, "I-I live here remember?"
Jon slumped down into a chair in shock. He'd had a crush on Biff a few years ago, when the two of them were about thirteen or fourteen, but the attraction had died as they'd gotten older and Biff had become more and more of a jerk. It was then that the second part of Biff's statement reached his brain.
"Live here?" he asked, confused.
"Since I was thirteen," nodded Biff, still teary-eyed, "Remember my dad threw me out for being a sissy? And your parents took me in."
Jon's jaw dropped. Biff's dad was a real man's man and had been a semi-pro footballer in his youth. Both of Biff's older brothers had also played in high school and one now even played professionally and from what little Jon knew about Biff all three had pushed him to be hard and 'manly' so he could follow in their footsteps; if Biff had been a sissy when he was younger, of course they'd have rejected him, but it shocked and horrified Jon they'd go so far as to throw him out onto the street.
Biff studied him. "Oh my god," he gasped "Jon sweetie, did you use the stone?"
"How do you know about the stone?" He asked, too bowled over by the information about Biff's new life to even think of feigning ignorance about any stone.
"I was here when you got it remember?" replied Biff, wiping away a tear "you got it from your grampa. Please Jon, tell me what you've done."
Jon looked at Biff and said...
