The water was hot, piercing, and smooth as it ran down her body from the showerhead. Stacey closed her eyes and felt the water run through her blonde hair. She smoothed her hair back with her fingers, gently massaging the sides of her head, as well as feeling the shampoo run off her fingers. She imagined Michael behind her. Imagined that his hands were on hers as she helped guide them through her hair. Down her face, to her neck. Stacey opened her eyes and smiled devilishly as she picked up her body wash, poured some in her hands and got to work. Her hands smoothed her front and back, then back to her front, fondling her breasts. Michael would enjoy those immensely, she thought to herself. He always did. They were his big melons. Men! She laughed. They were never original. She didn't care what he called them, so long as he stuffed them in her mouth.
"I'm thinking crazy," she said aloud to no one in particular. She'd only seen him last night. Her hands went to her thighs, or were they already there? She didn't remember. She only knew her right hand rested in one spot, and it was gently pushing itself into her pussy. "Michael...I can't wait for you to come again." Stacey leaned back and allowed the water to caress her, envelop her, legs opening. "Oh my god!" Stacey turned off the shower, stared at the tiled wall, then opened the shower curtain, grabbed her towel, and dried herself off. Rough strokes, not light. She'd have to wait for Michael tonight. Was that the phone?
Stacey ran to the living room, wrapping the towel around her body at the same time, but when she got to her phone the ringing had stopped. She shrugged it off. "I must've been thinking about something else." Stacey shook her head and decided to get herself ready for Michael. He'd be there in an hour or so. Her hair wasn't going to get dry on its own. She glanced at the couch. "Now why would I leave the hairdryer there?" Stacey picked up the hairdryer with the letter R marked on it, returned to the bathroom, plugged it in, and then turned it on. She felt the side of her face become warm and from the corner of her eye could see a greenish light. And there was some humming sound. After a moment, the light faded, the humming stopped, and her face stopped feeling warm. She could see herself standing in front of her. "What the hell??"
"Oh my!" said the person standing in front of Stacey.
"Oh my god!!" screamed Stacey. Stacey ran away from the bathroom, turned around, and hit a wall.
Stacey woke up and found herself on the floor. She felt her body and realized she was dressed. Stacey stood up, and then saw the person at the couch. It was her, but it wasn't. It was someone who looked like her. "Are you supposed to be some fuckin' clone or something?"
"There's a message on your machine," said the impostor sipping tea. "I hope you didn't mind that I listened to it...I mean it was for me."
"No it wasn't!" Stacey glared at the person, and then hit a button on her answering machine.
"Stacey, this is Michael," said the message, "I think I left my replicator gun at your place. It has an R on it. Just thought I'd let you know, so you don't like zap yourself by mistake ha ha ha, see you tonight sweetheart, I love you. Kissy kissy."
"I like that part," said the impostor. "Kissy, kissy. That's so cute."
"Shut up!" Stacey looked around angrily. "Just shut up, I'm trying to think! How the hell did I get dressed?" Stacey looked at her outfit. Khaki pants and a long-sleeved green blouse. She was also wearing a bra. "You sicko!"
"What?" The impostor sipped her tea. "You know you liked it too."
"Liked what? Someone else dress me!" Stacey growled shaking her fist at the impostor. "The only one who touches my body is my boyfriend!"
The impostor smirked. "Oh really? Well, I enjoyed it, so since I enjoyed it, you did too, since you are me."
"I'm not you, and you're not me. For starters, if you were me, your hair would be blonde, but it's not, is it? It's black."
"Yeah, whatever!" snapped the impostor. "Think what you want, I don't care. I'm just going to have a nice time with my boyfriend."
"Oh no you're not! He's my boyfriend, bitch!" Stacey jumped on the couch and grabbed the impostor by the hair. The doorbell rang. Stacey ran to the door.
"This isn't over bitch!" yelled the impostor.
Stacey opened the door and smiled at Michael. She saw him duck as a teacup flew past him. Stacey turned around and glared back at the couch. "Honey, you're early."
"Actually, sorry I'm late." Michael smiled, and then kissed Stacey. "These are for you."
"Thank you," said Stacey taking his flowers. "Red roses. You traditionalist, you."
The impostor ran to the door. "Come in Michael! I missed you!"
"No you didn't!" yelled Stacey.
"Uh-oh," said Michael. "I see you got my message a bit late."
"Michael, why is my hair black?" asked the impostor. She pushed Stacey out of the way and stood in front of Michael, and twirled a bit of her hair with her fingers. "I like your outfit, honey. I love it when you get all dressed up like that." The impostor ran her fingers down his tie.
"Um, yeah," said Michael. "I'm sorry, clone, I still have some bugs to work out on the replicator."
Stacey dusted herself off, and handed the flowers to the impostor. "Go put these in water. And thank you, Michael, I picked the outfit myself, naturally." She placed her hands on her hips and did a little spin.
The impostor rolled her eyes. "Um, yeah, well, Michael and I have a date."
Michael laughed. "Okay, this is confusing."
"I'll make it easy for you," said Stacey. She pushed Michael out the door, threw the impostor on the floor, ran out the door and closed it quickly. "Okay, quickly, before she comes after us!" Stacey grabbed Michael's hand and ran to his car.
Michael opened the door and watched Stacey run in.
Stacey opened the driver's side door. "Quickly, she's coming!"
Michael sauntered into the car. "Alright, alright, relax."
When they started to drive, Stacey relaxed. Little did they realize that the impostor knew where Stacey's car keys were.
The restaurant was not very crowded. Michael was glad because he had forgotten to make reservations. He smiled at the host. "Hello sir, I forgot to make reservations."
"Not a problem, sir," said the host, "we're only full on the weekends. A table for two?"
"Oh Michael, yoo hoo! Over here!"
Stacey gaped as she saw the impostor at a table near the center of the restaurant.
The host smiled. "Ah, yes, I believe she has been waiting for the both of you."
