Leslie walked back to his place, stopping at the local supermarket to get some supplies. Filling his backpack, he went back home and saw that Danny was rummaging for something to eat.
"You have anything else to eat here?"
"I do now, give me a minute and I'll make us something," replied Leslie taking out food for lunch. They stood around the kitchen each having a sandwich. After Leslie was done, he declared "You'll get changed after you eat. Did you want help getting in contact with the local shelter or anything?"
"Nah man. I want nothing to do with them. I'm good, now that I'm fed. Thanks for this," said Danny holding up the sandwich. Leslie nodded and went to his room to grab the medallion. Danny went into the bathroom, stripped and put the medallion on and touched his old shirt, Leslie's pants and hat. Danny's face slowly changed back to his own over the next 30 minutes. He took off the medallion and put it on the sink. He stared at it for a minute, pondering if he should take it. He could then change into a rich dude, never worrying about food again. He could take it to blackmail the girl...guy who brought him in. He decided against any of it, since Leslie had been kind to him. He had hair, a full belly and someone he could trust. That was good enough for him. He put on his old clothing, and left the bathroom.
"Here Leslie. I'm off. Good luck."
"You too Danny," answered Leslie shaking Danny's hand before he left the building. Leslie was back to having the place to himself. He took out his phone and saw the running conversation between the girls, mainly about cute guys and getting items for classes. There was an invite to Tammi and Staci's dorm room in a couple hours. His mom asked how things were going, so Leslie gave a quick reply things were moving along. John sent a text asking if Leslie wanted to come over to play videogames. Leslie replied that he would be over in a bit to play. He set an alarm on his phone for 11.5 hours since he changed while walking over to the address provided by John. He was let him after a knock.
"Hey Leslie, how's it going? My roommates and I are playing Smash Brothers, come on in," said John waving Leslie into the room. It was big and there were 2 other guys in there, with one putting in a 4th controller. John introduced Eric and Wesley tell them that Leslie was the gamer he was talking about, then they started playing. Initially only John and Leslie were talking, well trash talking, but eventually Eric and Wesley joined in. Soon the 4 of them were talking about school plans, majors and other games. It was like hanging with the guys until Wesley gave Leslie a particularlly savage beating causing him to stand and shout, "Suck my dick Leslie!" To which John yelled, "Dude!" Wesley turned red immediately saying sorry. There was quiet while the three guys looked at Leslie, and then he realized they thought he was a girl.
"Guys, don't worry about it, it's an expression. I tell people to suck my dick all the time, well not all the time, but you know what I mean. It's ok."
"You sure?" asked John
"Of course, now let's play." The 4 of them started up again, but it wasn't the same. After a few rounds, Leslie told them he was invited to something else and had to head out. He waved goodbye when he left. Why couldn't they have acted naturally? It's just what some people say when they win? His phone pinged, and there was a message from John "Sorry about Wesley. If you are up for it, we can try again sometime." Leslie gave a thumbs up and walked to see the girls, feeling like he could use some easy companionship. The door was open when he arrived, "hello?"
"Hey Les, come on in! I figured you'd be here on time!" he heard Tammi say. She ran over and gave him a hug before closing the door. The 3 girls were there, plus a couple more that must be roommates.
"Kiki and Amber, this is Les, the girl from the fitness test we were telling you about. She is awesome," introduced Staci.
"Call me Leslie," he said holding out his hand. Amber firmly shook his hand with a large smile, her pearly white teeth contrasting her dark skin. Kiki swatted it down and hugged him, "Hay! nice to meetcha!"
"Now that that's done, how was your day?" asked Lila, holding eye contact a litte longer than usual.
"It was fine, how was everyone else's?" counter Leslie.
"Les, I found the cutest notebook and pen set," said Tammi, showing them to him and all the other girls. There was talk of classes, changes to make to the dorm room, outfits to wear, high school drama and layout of the school. Eventually Kiki asked, "so you are the girl from the video? That was so inspiring. #tobetter!"
"What was it like in the military?" asked Amber. Leslie told a few stories that were pretty tame to start, telling them about some of the places he had gone and how the bases work. With the encouragement of the girls, he started talking about some of the patrols and equipment, then finally some of the mischief the troops go into. Each story caused the girls to giggle and roll on the floor, causing Leslie to go into another one. Soon, hours had passed.
"And that's when lieuteant Bradshaw and I peed on the major's car, him on the trunk and me on the hood!"
"That sounds epic Les, you squatting on the hood. Sounds like those guys loved you. Did you ever sleep with any of them?" asked Tammi
"In the barracks? We all were in the barracks together," answered Leslie.
"No girl, I think she means ,did you have sex with them?" clarified Amber.
"Of course not, they were my bros."
"Did they try to sleep with you?" asked Kiki
"Never."
"They were good men then. Well Les, if you didn't fuck any of them, did you at least get to see if any of them were well hung?" asked Amber. Leslie's memory went back to the group showers in the barracks. Bradshaw was well endowed. Wait, why am I thinking about this
"No, I showered with the girls," replied Leslie.
"Is that were you wanted to shower though? I mean, you did almost shower with the guys before we met you. Makes me wonder, would you want to be a guy, you know, if you could? " asked Lila with a smile while looking at Leslie.
"Oh, I totally would want to be a guy for a day," answered Amber before Leslie could say anything, "Could you imaging peeing standing up?"
"Or not having to wear a bra?" added Tammi
"No to mention not having to have Aunt Flo visit," continued Kiki
"Ladies, I asked Les. Would you want to be a guy or a girl?" interrupted Lila. All eyes were on him
"Well, I think I could be happy being a guy for all the reasons the others mentioned," answered Leslie hesitantly.
"You're among friends here, if you ever want to tell us anything, Les," said Lila before coming over the hug him. The girls nodded in agreement and joined in the hug
