Entering his parents’ bedroom, Ben knew what he had to do but wasn’t looking forward to it. He knew he had to get ready for bed which meant doing things that would most likely be uncomfortable. Having to start somewhere, Ben went over to his mother’s dresser and began to pull out a set of pajamas to wear.
This wasn’t the first time that Ben had gotten a female body in the Body Exchange which meant he sort of knew what to pick out and what not to. He could still recall spending his first night in his aunt’s body years ago and not knowing that women didn’t sleep with bras on. It was definitely a learning curve back then and still was as Ben did his best to replicate his mother’s style.
In the end, Ben had picked out a black set of pajamas that had a pink seam running around where each piece of fabric met each other. The top was a button up as the entire set was very soft to the touch and a nice balance between being warm and breathable. Ben set the pajamas down in the bed as he heard the shower running in the bathroom right next door to the bedroom.
“Forgetting something, dear?” Elma asked as she saw Ben set the pajamas down and take a seat. She could tell that he was ready to wait for the shower to open but knew he wasn’t done. Ben looked at her confused as soon he realized what he had to do.
“Ughhh do I have to?” Ben replied, not sounding thrilled.
“It’s the cost of looking pretty. Can’t wash it off in the shower,” Elma replied as Ben sat up, continuing to groan.
Ben walked back over to his mother’s dresser which featured a mirror attached to the top. There, he could see the reflection of his mother which wasn’t exactly what Ben wanted to see. He looked closely at her face and realized that she went all out for Thanksgiving as every inch appeared to be covered in makeup. Looking at what was around, Ben soon located items that he could use to clean his face. The process took a bit of time and was annoying but as Grandma Elma said, it was the cost of looking pretty.
Ben was eventually done removing makeup which seemed to line up perfectly with whoever was in the shower. The water was no longer running as Ben grabbed his pajamas and headed over to the bathroom to investigate. Exiting the room, he saw that the bathroom door was open with no one inside. Now came the most interesting part of any Body Exchange, the first shower.
