Karyn had seen Jon get splashed with the drink. Watched a teacher lead him towards the principal's office. It took a while to get through the crowd that had gathered after the event.
“Where did they take Jon?” Karyn asked the receptionist as she worried about her best friend.
“Oh yes, him. The gym teacher took him to the locker room to pick out some clothes.”
“Thanks!”
She took an alternate route this time, avoiding the crowds. So, it wasn’t long until she was opening the boys’ locker room. She could only hope that no one would catch her in it. Even if they did she was here for a good reason to check after her friend.
She was only a few steps into the locker room when she heard a crash and a scream.
“Jon!?” She rushed towards the sound. It was one of the changing stalls. Coming up to the stall the screams were climbing in pitch as she heard popping and crunching sounds. She quickly bent down, her wish-altered hair briefly getting in the way. She really wished she didn’t make that wish.
Finally, she was low enough to see into the stall and what she saw shocked her. It was clearly Jon but he was quickly becoming someone else, a woman? Older too.
“I wish I was somewhere no one would see me,” Jon spoke his face in a grimace.
“Jon!?”
There was a flash and Karyn stood in the locker room alone.
The bell rang. 5 minutes till first period. Karyn had to move. Jon wasn’t here anymore, maybe she would find him in senior English. Apparently, they were getting their new full-time teacher after the previous one had retired after mysterious circumstances.
Whoever it was they had to be better than the sub they had been having. Hopefully, he would be there.
Karyn's hopes would come true even though they were only mostly right. She would be there.
She left not noticing the piles of scandalous clothing in the adjacent stall.
