We were late, of course.
I sighed as my fourth class ended, and lunch started. I grimaced a bit as I walked back to my locker. Fat lot of good this damned stone had been so far! All it had done was mess with Karyn's figure, and make me late to class. Well, all right, at least Karyn didn't seem TOO put off by her accidental wish. But being late was a major pain! I REALLY didn't need to be lectured on tardiness this morning.
"Hi Jon. You were late too I guess, huh?" Karyn asked as we met near my locker.
"Yeah. Got chewed out for being late." I said glumly. "Then I got my history test back.. with a C-. and then Mr. Finkle gave a pop math quiz " I sighed. This way was going down hill from the start.
"Ouch." Karyn said, flinching sympathetically. "Rough morning. I got in late too, but Mr. Thompson didn't really get too upset over it. Just took me aside and told m to be on time." She said, shrugging a bit. "Usually he gets a bit more uptight than that.
I smiled a bit in amusement. "What, didn't you know? Mr. Thompson is always a lot nicer to pretty girls."
"Jon! That's not funny." Karyn said, a bit embarrassed. I shrugged slightly.
"Well, it's certainly true now. It IS what you wished for. Sort of."
Karyn sighed and nodded a bit. "True I guess. Well, least these are good for SOMETHING " she said, gesturing at her chest a bit. I just cleared my throat slightly and looked away.
A little ways down the hall, Ted Manley was leaning against his locker, smiling at two cute girls as he put the moves on him. I could head their laughter faintly from where I stood as he dazzled both of them with his pearly whites.
Karyn noticed my gaze. "There goes Ted again." She said in amusement. I sighed slightly and nodded.
"Yah. I always wanted to be able to talk to girls as easily as he does it " I said a bit wistfully. I had always been rather bashful around the opposite sex. Karyn didn't really count. We'd been friends since we were kids. But around anyone else, well Let's just say I was no Casanova. I always ended up tongue-tied
"JON!" Karyn gasped, looking at me strangely. I just blinked back in confusion.
Suddenly the wording of my commend came back to me. 'I always wanted to BE.. able to ' I winced. My body DID feel rather odd suddenly.. Concerned with my thoughts, I hadn't noticed the ripples of change With a small groan I looked down to see what had happened to me
